Assessment Information [top]

Red List Category & Criteria: Least Concern     ver 3.1
Year Published: 2009
Assessor/s: BirdLife International
Reviewer/s: Bird, J., Butchart, S.
Justification:
This species has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). The population trend is not known, but the population is not believed to be decreasing sufficiently rapidly to approach the thresholds under the population trend criterion (>30% decline over ten years or three generations). The population size has not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (<10,000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be >10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure). For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.
History:
2008 Least Concern

Population [top]

Population: The global population size has not been quantified. In Europe, the breeding population is estimated to number 5000-20000 breeding pairs, equating to 15000-60000 individuals (BirdLife International 2004), but Europe forms <5% of the global range.
