It is likely that density values for this species were overestimated given that imperfect detection was not considered. However, even when assuming that only 25% of the forest cover within the species’ range is occupied, the estimated effective population size is sufficiently large to justify a new categorization. Deforestation is still taking place and habitat loss might still be happening, but until more quantitative evidence on population size and population decline are available, the species should be listed as LC.
Habitat loss might still affect populations in Colombia, where the species might be recategorized to NT (currently listed as VU); this needs to be evaluated.
Many thanks to everyone who has contributed to this discussion. We greatly appreciate the time and effort invested in commenting. The window for consultation is now temporarily closed and we are unable to accept any more comments until 6 February 2023. We will now analyse and interpret new information, and we will post a preliminary decision on this species’ Red List status on this page on 6 February 2023, when discussions will re-open.
Based on available information, our preliminary proposal for the 2023 Red List would be to adopt the proposed classifications outlined in the initial forum discussion. The species factsheet has been updated to incorporate information submitted via this forum.
There is now a period for further comments until the final deadline on 12 February 2023, after which the recommended categorisations will be put forward to IUCN.
The final 2023 Red List categories will be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in December 2023, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.

Recommended categorisation to be put forward to IUCN
The final categorisation for this species has not changed. Grey-breasted Mountain-toucan is recommended to be listed as Least Concern.
