Chapter 25: Population estimates and trends of seabird species breeding in Namibia
Of the sixteen seabird species (including the African Black Oystercatcher Haematopus moquini ) breeding in the Benguela Ecosystem, fourteen breed in Namibia, mostly on islands and rocks along the Namibian coast but also on coastal cliffs, in dune fields, salt pans and estuaries and at localities further inland. Eight seabird species and two subspecies breeding in Namibia are endemic to the Benguela Ecosystem.
