Data Zone
The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation in 2006 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unicolored Antwren Myrmotherula unicolor | LC | resident (-) | 90 birds | A1 |
| Bare-throated Bellbird Procnias nudicollis | NT | non-breeding (-) | 30 birds | A1 |
| Eye-ringed Tody-tyrant Hemitriccus orbitatus | LC | resident (-) | 90 birds | A1 |
| Black-backed Tanager Tangara peruviana | VU | non-breeding (-) | 30 birds | A1 |
Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2006. The most recent assessment (2024) is shown below.
