) because despite its wide range of occurrence well above the threshold for vulnerable (VU), it may have an increasingly restricted area of occupancy due to declining wetlands in the region that would qualify for vulnerable (VU) status. It is difficult to estimate the population status and trends of this species, but it is likely that its population is declining based on indirect factors such as the lack of recent specimens from many parts of its range, its poor representation in museum collections and increasing habitat disturbance from loss of wetlands associated with growing human populations in the region (
