The site was identified as important in 2022 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
Greater Rhea Rhea americana	NT	resident	2012	min 30 individuals	B1a
Yellow-legged Tinamou Crypturellus noctivagus	NT	resident	2020	min 30 individuals	B1a
White-browed Guan Penelope jacucaca	VU	resident	2012	min 30 individuals	A1
Hooded Visorbearer Augastes lumachella	NT	resident	2012-2022	min 30 individuals	B1a
Rufous-vented Ground-cuckoo Neomorphus geoffroyi	VU	resident	2007-2022	min 30 individuals	A1
Lear's Macaw Anodorhynchus leari	EN	resident	2012-2022	min 2 individuals	A1
Blue-winged Macaw Primolius maracana	NT	resident	2012	min 30 individuals	B1a

1. The current IUCN Red List category. The category at the time of the IBA criteria assessment (2022) may differ.

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2022. The most recent assessment (2022) is shown below.

State (condition of the trigger species' habitats)
Habitat	Quantity (% remaining)	Quality (% carrying capacity)	Result
Forest	good (> 90%)	good (> 90%)	favourable
Rocky areas (eg. inland cliffs, mountain peaks)	good (> 90%)	good (> 90%)	favourable

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat	Timing	Scope	Severity	Result
Agricultural expansion and intensification	happening now	some of area/population (10-49%)	slow but significant deterioration	medium
Biological resource use	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Energy production and mining	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low
Natural system modifications	happening now	small area/few individuals (<10%)	slow but significant deterioration	low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas	Management plan	Other action	Result
Most of site (50-90%) covered (including the most critical parts for important bird species)	A management plan exists but it is out of date or not comprehensive	Some limited conservation initiatives are in place	low

Year	Protected Area	Designation	% overlap with IBA
2006	Área De Proteção Ambiental Lago De Sobradinho	Área de Proteção Ambiental	21
2018	Parque Nacional do Boqueirão da Onça	Parque	-
