Justification:
Listed as Near Threatened because, although it is relatively abundant within its small range, its Extent of Occurrence is less than 5,000 km2, and the extent and quality of its habitat are probably declining, thus making the species close to qualifying for Vulnerable.

| Systems: |
Terrestrial |
| Major Threat(s): |
