Data Zone
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 (-) | present | A2, A3 |
| Magellanic Woodpecker Campephilus magellanicus | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
| Austral Parakeet Enicognathus ferrugineus | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
| Black-throated Huet-huet Pteroptochos tarnii | LC | resident (-) | present | A2, A3 |
| White-throated Treerunner Pygarrhichas albogularis | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
| Thorn-tailed Rayadito Aphrastura spinicauda | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
| Des Murs's Wiretail Sylviorthorhynchus desmurii | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |
| Patagonian Tyrant Colorhamphus parvirostris | LC | resident (-) | present | A3 |

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2010. The most recent assessment (2015) is shown below.
| IBA conservation assessment | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Year of assessment | State | Pressure | Response |
| 2015 | poor | high | very low |
| Whole site assessed? | State assessed by | Accuracy of information | |
| yes | habitat | medium | |

|---|---|---|---|
| Habitat | Quantity (% remaining) | Quality (% carrying capacity) | Result |
| Forest | - | poor (40–69%) | poor |
| Grassland | - | moderate (70–90%) | moderate |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Threat | Timing | Scope | Severity | Result |
| Agricultural expansion and intensification | happening now | most of population/area (50–90%) | moderate decline (10–30% over 3 generations) | high |
| Transportation and service corridors | happening now | few individuals/small area (<10%) | slow decline (1–10% over 3 generations) | low |
| Residential and commercial development | happening now | few individuals/small area (<10%) | no or slight decline (<1% over 3 generations) | low |
| Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats) | |||
