Conservation and Management

Not globally threatened (Least Concern). Considered a restricted-range species, but present in all three of the Sumatra and Peninsular Malaysia Endemic Bird Area, the Java and Bali Forests Endemic Bird Area, and the Sulawesi Endemic Bird Area (35 Stattersfield, A. J., M. J. Crosby, A. J. Long, and D. C. Wege (1998). Endemic Bird Areas of the World: Priorities for Biodiversity Conservation. BirdLife Conservation Series 7. BirdLife International, Cambridge, UK. Close ). Poorly known and infrequently recorded, thus difficult to accurately assess, although its confinement to remote elevations renders it unlikely to be immediately threatened by habitat loss.
