IBA Justification

The site was identified as important 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 List1 Season Year(s) Size IBA criteria
Unicolored Antwren Myrmotherula unicolor LC resident - 90 individuals A1
Bare-throated Bellbird Procnias nudicollis NT non-breeding - 30 individuals A1
Eye-ringed Tody-tyrant Hemitriccus orbitatus LC resident - 90 individuals A1
Black-backed Tanager Tangara peruviana VU non-breeding - 30 individuals A1
