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 closed and we are unable to accept any more comments until 12 February 2024. We will now analyse and interpret the information, and we will post a preliminary decision on this species’ Red List status on this page on 12 February 2024, when discussions will re-open.
Based on available information, our preliminary proposal for the 2024 Red List would be to adopt the proposed classifications outlined in the initial forum discussion.
There is now a period for further comments until the final deadline on 18 February 2024, after which the recommended categorisations will be put forward to IUCN.
The final 2024 Red List categories will be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in December 2024, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.
Looking at the distribution map, I notice a large discrepancy from reality. Most of the supposed range in Ecuador is including areas that may look like forest on aerial photos, but in fact are just acaia scrub where goats have eaten all undergrowth and thus habitat for the species. It is an extremely local and rare species in Ecuador. My guess would be that the same goes for much of the supposed range in Peru. I would recommend that the species remains considered Vulnerable or even Endangered.

Recommended categorisations to be put forward to IUCN
Based on available information and following information received from Manuel Sanchez Nivecela, our proposal for the 2024 Red List is to pend the decision on this species and keep the discussion open, while leaving the current Red List category unchanged.
Many thanks for everyone who contributed to the 2024.1 GTB Forum process. The final 2024 Red List categories will now be published on the BirdLife and IUCN websites in October 2024, following further checking of information relevant to the assessments by both BirdLife and IUCN.
In Peru, on the main cordillera de los andes, this species has a very narrow elevational band where can be found. In that band, it is not common. The baitat is suffering from deforestation for agiculture and cattle ranching. Fires are also a reason to degade habitat. On the Amotapes mountain range, despite being a protected area, the species is not common. This one, I think, its a rare species occupying a very threatened habitat.
The map above shows a much bigger area that the one used by the species in Peru. My recommendation is to keep it as Vulnerable.
