Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.
It was formerly classified as a vulnerable species by the IUCN.[2] But new research has shown it to be not as rare as it was believed. Consequently, it is downlisted to near threatened status in 2008[3] and least concern in 2012.[1]
