. The species is known from eight localities, none of which appear to be in protected areas. Based on satellite imagery from Google Earth, the locations in
appear to be heavily impacted by deforestation, while the four Venezuelan locations are in remote and vast primary forests with large buffers from disturbed areas. Even though we project continuing decline in the extent and quality of habitat for the Colombian and Brazilian locations, the undisturbed forests in southern
appear to be safe from large-scale disturbance for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, it appears unlikely that the species will qualify for a threatened status in the near future and is assigned a preliminary status of Least Concern (
