PL164
Jaktorow and Krasnicza Wola Fishponds


IBA Justification

The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation in 2010 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
A4iii Species group - waterbirds n/a passage (2004–2008) 20,000 birds C4

IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2010. The most recent assessment (2009) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2009 not assessed very high low
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
yes unset medium

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Biological resource use happe­ning now whole of popul­ation/area (>90%) moderate decline (10–30% over 3 gener­ations) very high
Transportation and service corridors happe­ning now some of popul­ation/area (10–49%) moderate decline (10–30% over 3 gener­ations) high
Natural system modifications happe­ning now some of popul­ation/area (10–49%) slow decline (1–10% over 3 gener­ations) medium
Agricultural expansion and intensification happe­ning now some of popul­ation/area (10–49%) slow decline (1–10% over 3 gener­ations) medium
Pollution happe­ning now few indivi­duals/small area (<10%) slow decline (1–10% over 3 gener­ations) low
No known threats happe­ning now few indivi­duals/small area (<10%) no or slight decline (<1% over 3 gener­ations) low
Residential and commercial development likely in short term (<4 years) few indivi­duals/small area (<10%) slow decline (1–10% over 3 gener­ations) low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Designation Planning Action Result
Some of area covered (10–49%) No management planning has taken place Substantive conservation measures are being implemented, but these are not compre­hensive and are limited by resources and capacity low
