The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation in 2009 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
Wattled Curassow Crax globulosa	EN	resident (2005)	250 birds	A1
Orinoco Goose Neochen jubata	NT	resident (1995)	30 birds	A1
Olive-spotted Hummingbird Talaphorus chlorocercus	LC	resident (1995)	present	A2
Harpy Eagle Harpia harpyja	VU	resident (1995)	30 birds	A1

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2009. The most recent assessment (2008) is shown below.
