Aktash Massif Important Bird Area
The Aktash Massif Important Bird Area lies in Sughd Province, the northernmost part of Tajikistan. Description The Important Bird Area (IBA) is a mountainous 47,421 ha site covering the southern slope of the Kuraminskiy ridge on the border with Uzbekistan, which forms the eastern, northern and western limits of the IBA. Its altitude ranges from 1700 to 3000 m above sea level. It contains many snowfield- and spring-fed streams which flow into the Aktash and Ashtsay rivers – tributaries of the Syr Darya.

The site includes the Aktashsky Zakaznik (nature reserve) which was established for the conservation of Menzbier's marmot, at the time the only place in Tajikistan where the species occurred, though it has since become extinct there. Birds The site was identified as an IBA by BirdLife International because it supports populations of 162 spe ...
