The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation in 2007 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.
Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species') at the site:Species | Red List | Season (year/s of estimate) | Size | IBA criteria |
---|---|---|---|---|
Crowned Solitary Eagle Buteogallus coronatus | EN | resident (1998–2007) | common | A1 |
Hyacinth Macaw Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus | VU | unknown (1998–2007) | present | A1 |
Russet-mantled Foliage-gleaner Syndactyla dimidiata | LC | resident (1998–2007) | rare | A3 |
Chestnut-capped Foliage-gleaner Clibanornis rectirostris | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
Bare-throated Bellbird Procnias nudicollis | NT | resident (1998–2007) | uncommon | A1 |
Reiser's Tyrannulet Phyllomyias reiseri | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
Sharp-tailed Tyrant Culicivora caudacuta | LC | resident (1998–2007) | uncommon | A1 |
Cock-tailed Tyrant Alectrurus tricolor | VU | resident (1998–2007) | present | A1, A3 |
