Important birds' areas of Uzbekistan (IBAs), entered in International List of IBA in 2007

In February 2008 the inventory and description of 48 suggested IBAs of Uzbekistan were completed and in April 2008 the BirdLife Secretariat approved the data and officially designated the sites as IBAs and these now form part of the global IBA network of more than 10,000 sites. They were entered in BirdLife International Database - World Biodiversity Data Base (WBDB). In Acrobat-file (PDF) is given the characteristic of each IBA: numbers of sites, appropriate numbers of green circles on the map; local name; nature-conservative status; IBA critereas applied to this territory; administrative belonging; central coordinates; altitude; area; globally-threatened birds species; biome species; birds species, making congregations; animals and plants species included in National Red Book of Uzbekistan and Red List of IUCN (UzRDB and RL) dwelling on the territory, and problems of conservation.

Since 2009 inventory and description for potential IBAs was continued. In September 2011 the BirdLife Secretariat approved three more IBAs:

• UZ049 Akpetky lake system and surrounding Aralkum Desert
• UZ050 Sarykamysh lake and surrounding Ustyurt Plateau
• UZ051 Ayakaghytma lake and surrounding desert
