Sites - Important Bird Areas (IBAs)

Ornithological information La avifauna de la Zona Reservada de Laquipampa incluye especies amenazadas y endémicas. Destaca la presencia de Penelope albipennis en las quebradas Negrahuasi, El Reloj (sector Lajas) y Shembo.

Site description La Zona Reservada de Laquipampa se ubica en el distrito de Incahuasi, provincia de Ferreñafe, departamento de Lambayeque. Los hábitat más importantes de Laquipampa son el bosque seco, matorral desértico y monte ribereño. El relieve es variado, con presencia de quebradas, laderas y áreas planas. La zona está irrigada por tres ríos, el río Moyán y el río Sangana, que riegan las tierras altas del caserío Laquipampa, y el río La Leche, para las tierras bajas del caserío Puchaca. El sistema de producción predominante es el agropecuario. Son escasos los estudios que se han realizado en Laquipampa (Flanagan y Angulo 2001).
