The Dwarf Vireo is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.
The Dwarf Vireo seems to be scarce throughout its range in Michoactn, Oaxaca, and Guanajuato (A. H. Miller et al., Pacific Coast Avij., no. 33, pt. II, 1957; p. 224) and there are few spedmens in museum collections. Considering the apparently low numbers of the Dwarf Vireo, and the f.act that all four specimens of nests and eggs show evidence of brood parasitism, the effects of cowbird parasitism on the popula- tion structure of the Dwarf Vireo certainly warrant investigation.-DENms M.
