Justification

This species is Vulnerable because anecdotal evidence and the variety of threats indicate that the range and population are now small, fragmented and declining.

Threats

Unabating pressure from illegal hunting, logging and clearance for plantation agriculture is responsible for this species's ongoing decline¹.

Conservation

It is legally protected, but this is not enforced. Habitat in the Blue and John Crow Mountains has been declared a national park, but there is little enforcement or management¹. Funding is actively being sought for conservation in Cockpit Country¹.

Targets

*Survey to assess numbers and precise distribution. *Designate a national park in the forests of Cockpit Country, and maintain corridors linking these forests and lowland areas¹. *Enforce legal protection. *Ensure de facto protection of the national park in the Blue and John Crow Mountains¹.
