Kalininski Plavny


IBA Justification

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
Glossy Ibis Plegadis falcinellus LC breeding (2004) 4,000–4,500 pairs A4i, B1i, B2

IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2007. The most recent assessment (2006) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2006 moderate low low
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
yes population medium

State (condition of the trigger species' populations)
Species Actual vs Reference (units) % remaining Result
Mute Swan Cygnus olor 10 / 10 (pairs) 100 good
Eurasian Spoonbill Platalea leucorodia 10 / 10 (pairs) 100 good
Glossy Ibis Plegadis falcinellus 3,000 / 4,000 (pairs) 75 moderate

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Human intrusions and disturbance happe­ning now most of popul­ation/area (50–90%) no or slight decline (<1% over 3 gener­ations) low
Biological resource use happe­ning now most of popul­ation/area (50–90%) no or slight decline (<1% over 3 gener­ations) low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Designation Planning Action Result
Little/none of area covered (<10%) A management plan exists, but it is out of date or not compre­hensive Very little or no conservation action taking place low
