As it is a lowland species, it is threatened by land use change, leading to an estimated decline of 50% in AOO and 4% in EOO. It is found in 11 locations, all of which are within Totally Protected Areas (TPAs) but potential disturbance is still a threat to each locality. It has an ability to adapt to secondary forests and different soil type. It is assessed as Near Threatened nearly meeting threatened category under criterion B.
