Abstract:

The annotated list that follows summarizes my published and hitherto unpublished sightings of seabirds in the waters off Angola for 10 years between 1966 and 1988, when I worked as a fisheries biologist on fishing or research vessels. These observations were made over a total of 69 days -37 days outside and 32 days within the Exclusive Economic Zone -  in all months of the year except July. Waters off Angola were traversed when going to or coming from more southerly regions or when steaming from or to ports. Only when passing fishing vessels, especially in the southernmost region, did I have the opportunity to observe concentrations of seabirds; otherwise the numbers seen were mostly small.
