Listed as data deficient since it has only recently been described, and there is still very little information on its extent of occurrence, status and ecological requirements. Locally abundant. Found in two protected areas: the Réserve Naturelle Intégrale du Tsaratanana and the Réserve Spéciale de Manongarivo. Known only from pristine forest. Habitat is receding due to subsistence agriculture, logging, charcoal manufacture, invasion and spread of eucalyptus, grazing and expanding human settlement (Andreone and Vences 2008).
