The site was identified as important in 2004 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.
Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species'):Species | Current IUCN Red List Category | Season | Year(s) | Population estimate at site | IBA criteria met |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Greater Spotted Eagle Clanga clanga | VU | breeding | 2004 | 2 breeding pairs | A1 |
Eastern Imperial Eagle Aquila heliaca | VU | breeding | 2004 | 3 breeding pairs | A1 |
The current IUCN Red List category may differ from that which was valid at the time of IBA criteria assessment (2004).
