Justification:
Listed as Endangered as within the range of this subspecies approximately 50% of the forests have been degraded over the past 30 years (three generations); much deforestation was in colonial times. The forest that does remain, however, is largely degraded and much of it lies in forestry plantation. In addition, there is trade of the subspecies for the illegal pet market.
