Scientific Name: Aethopyga shelleyi Sharpe
Justification: This species has a very large range, and hence does not approach the
thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (extent of
occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or
fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a
small number of locations or severe fragmentation). The population
trend appears to be stable, and hence the species does not approach the
thresholds for Vulnerable under the population trend criterion (>30%
decline over ten years or three generations). The population size has
not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds
for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (<10,000 mature
individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be >10% in ten
years or three generations, or with a specified population structure).
For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.
