Data Zone
The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation in 2004 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Green Peafowl Pavo muticus | EN | resident (1980) | 1–9 birds | A1 |
| White-breasted Babbler Stachyris grammiceps | NT | resident (1987–1998) | present | A2 |
| Grey-cheeked Tit-babbler Mixornis flavicollis | LC | resident (1987–1998) | present | A2 |
Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2004. The most recent assessment (2004) is shown below.

| Year of assessment | State | Pressure | Response |
| 2004 | very poor | high | low |
| Whole site assessed? | State assessed by | Accuracy of information | |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Threat | Timing | Scope | Severity | Result |

| Human intrusions and disturbance | likely in short term (<4 years) | some of population/area (10–49%) | moderate decline (10–30% over 3 generations) | medium |
