État de la populationTexte officiel évaluation IUCNExpert
This assessor has observed this species in several localities in Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia and in southern Ecuador. The species was fairly common in each locality observed, and is estimated at five plants per km2 in its Area of Occupancy. The total population size is thus estimated at 700,000 mature individuals over its entire range. There is no specific information indicating a decline in population but it is reasonable to assume there are some localities where the species is under decline due to habitat loss.
