Dalverzin State Forestry and Hunting Management Area


IBA Justification

The site was identified as important in 2006 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
Lesser White-fronted Goose Anser erythropus VU winter 1996-2006 5-15 adults A1
Ferruginous Duck Aythya nyroca NT winter 1996-2006 12-60 adults A1
Mallard Anas platyrhynchos LC winter 2006 2,500-10,408 adults A4i
White Stork Ciconia ciconia LC winter 2006 40-150 adults A4i
Great White Egret Ardea alba LC winter 2006 50-250 adults A4i
Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo LC winter 2006 486-1,200 adults A4i

IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2006. The most recent assessment (2016) is shown below.

Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2016 not assessed high medium
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
yes unset good

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Biological resource use happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) slow but significant deterioration high
Invasive and other problematic species and genes happening now some of area/population (10-49%) slow but significant deterioration medium
Human intrusions and disturbance happening now small area/few individuals (<10%) slow but significant deterioration low
Agricultural expansion and intensification happening now majority/most of area/population (50-90%) no or imperceptible deterioration low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas Management plan Other action Result
Whole area of site (>90%) covered by appropriate conservation designation A management plan exists but it is out of date or not comprehensive Substantive conservation measures are being implemented but these are not comprehensive and are limited by resources and capacity medium
