État de la populationTexte officiel évaluation IUCNExpert
Little is known about the population status of this species, but it may be locally abundant, at least in protected areas of suitable habitat (Dunham and Gaubert 2013).

Description complète des menacesTexte détaillé évaluation IUCNExpert
Major threats to this species include habitat loss, because of the intensive deforestation resulting from agriculture, logging, and mining pressures in the Upper Guinean forest zone. Severe hunting pressures may also be affecting populations.

Mesures de conservation recommandéesStratégies de conservation IUCNExpert
Although present in several protected areas, several of these require improved protection because hunting is intense even within them, such as Mt Nimba, Ziama Classified Forest and Taï N. P. Further survey work is necessary to determine whether secondary growth and moist woodland areas provide suitable habitat for this species (Dunham and Gaubert 2013).
