The site was identified as important in 2024 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 List1	Season	Year(s)	Size	IBA criteria
Parana Antwren Formicivora acutirostris	NT	resident	2015	min 90 individuals	B1a
Kaempfer's Tody-tyrant Hemitriccus kaempferi	VU	resident	2015	min 30 individuals	A1

1. The current IUCN Red List category. The category at the time of the IBA criteria assessment (2024) may differ.

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2024. The most recent assessment (2024) is shown below.

Habitat	Quantity (% remaining)	Quality (% carrying capacity)	Result
Forest	moderate (70-90%)	moderate (70-90%)	unfavourable

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Pollution	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	moderate to rapid deterioration	high
Residential and commercial development	happening now	majority/most of area/population (50-90%)	slow but significant deterioration	high
