This rarely reported species is associated only with the Okavango and Kwando rivers in north-eastern Namibia. They have also been recorded from the Impalila and Kasika conservancies. Large breeding colonies comprising many thousands of birds were found in submerged reed beds on the Kwando River in 1989 and in the same year near Impalila Island.
