Major Threat(s): The species lives in humid forested areas always with closed canopy cover. Therefore, habitat loss due to deforestation is a major potential threat to the species. It is not known if the species can survive in man made habitats with the adequate canopy cover and humidity.
Conservation Actions [top]
Conservation Actions: It is known from the Kuala Belalong Field Studies Centre, within Ulu Temburong National Park in Brunei, but has not been recorded from protected areas in either Malaysia or Indonesia. Additional surveys are needed to establish its real distribution and clarify the extent of threats from deforestation.
