The site was identified as important in 2010 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 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Chilean Pigeon Patagioenas araucana | LC | resident | - | present | A2, A3 |
Magellanic Woodpecker Campephilus magellanicus | LC | resident | - | present | A3 |
Austral Parakeet Enicognathus ferrugineus | LC | resident | - | present | A3 |
Black-throated Huet-huet Pteroptochos tarnii | LC | resident | - | present | A2, A3 |
White-throated Treerunner Pygarrhichas albogularis | LC | resident | - | present | A3 |
Thorn-tailed Rayadito Aphrastura spinicauda | LC | resident | - | present | A3 |
Des Murs's Wiretail Sylviorthorhynchus desmurii | LC | resident | - | present | A3 |
Patagonian Tyrant Colorhamphus parvirostris | LC | resident | - | present | A3 |

The current IUCN Red List category may differ from that which was valid at the time of IBA criteria assessment (2010).
