État de la populationTexte officiel évaluation IUCNExpert
Quite abundant in some areas but absent from other areas where suitable habitat exists; for example, they are rare in the area between the Uma and Enano Rivers, east of Kisangani, and fairly common between Kisangani and Buta, and between the Aruwimi and Lindi Rivers (Schreiber et al. 1989).

Mesures de conservation recommandéesStratégies de conservation IUCNExpert
There are records from the Ituri Forest and Okapi Faunal Reserve, and it probably occurs in several other protected areas in its range (Van Rompaey and Colyn 2013). Nyungwe N. P. (Rwanda) currently offers better protection than any protected areas in DR Congo (Hart and Hall 1996, Plumptre et al. 2002).
