Population

Conservation

The conservation status of the species was evaluated in 2008 as least concern, and that population trend is assumed to be stable.Misattribution between this and other species of Miniopterus in Indonesia, the Philippines and New Guinea islands has led to taxonomic uncertainty and therefore doubt on any populations trajectory. The broad distribution range is presumed to include the protection afforded by conservation areas.
