Conservation Actions In-Place
There are several protected areas within its range, including Parque Nacional Sumaco Napo-Galeras, Parque Nacional Yasuni, Reserva Biólogica Limoncocha, and Reserva de Produccion Faunistica Cuyabeno.
Research Needed
Further taxonomic studies are needed. This is a species complex containing several likely threatened species from the Amazonian foothills of the Ecuadorian Andes (Elmer et al. 2013). As soon as the taxonomic status is resolved, an assessment of the new species will be urgently needed (D.F. Cisneros-Hererdia pers. comm. 2021).
