Lago Budi


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
Chilean Pigeon Patagioenas araucana LC resident (2008) present A2
Slender-billed Parakeet Enicognathus leptorhynchus LC resident (2008) present A2
Black-throated Huet-huet Pteroptochos tarnii LC resident (2008) present A2
Chucao Tapaculo Scelorchilus rubecula LC resident (2008) present A2
Ochre-flanked Tapaculo Eugralla paradoxa LC resident (2008) present A2

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 (2021) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2021 very poor high medium
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
yes habitat good

State (condition of the trigger species' habitats)
Habitat Quantity (% remaining) Quality (% carrying capacity) Result
Forest poor (40–69%) very poor (<40%) very poor
Marine Coastal/Supratidal moderate (70–90%) moderate (70–90%) poor

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Pollution happe­ning now whole of popul­ation/area (>90%) slow decline (1–10% over 3 gener­ations) high
Biological resource use happe­ning now most of popul­ation/area (50–90%) slow decline (1–10% over 3 gener­ations) high
Climate change and severe weather happe­ning now some of popul­ation/area (10–49%) moderate decline (10–30% over 3 gener­ations) high
Residential and commercial development happe­ning now some of popul­ation/area (10–49%) no or slight decline (<1% over 3 gener­ations) low
Agricultural expansion and intensification happe­ning now 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
Whole area (>90%) covered by appropriate conservation designation A management plan exists, but it is out of date or not compre­hensive Some limited conservation initiatives are in place medium

Habitats

Habitat % of IBA Habitat detail
Forest major (>10)
