The site was identified as internationally important for bird conservation 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 List | Season (year/s of estimate) | Size | IBA criteria |
---|---|---|---|---|
Hook-billed Hermit Glaucis dohrnii | VU | resident (2022) | min 30 birds | A1 |
Brown-backed Parrotlet Touit melanonotus | NT | resident (2021) | min 30 birds | B1a |
Golden-tailed Parrotlet Touit surdus | VU | resident (2022) | min 30 birds | A1 |
