The Aden gull is a medium-sized seabird with dark plumage on the back and wings. It lives on the coasts of the Red Sea, the Persian Gulf and the northwestern part of the Indian Ocean.
The Aden gull differs from other gulls by its dark coloration of the back and wings. It is important for nature as a participant in the food chain on sea coasts and as a cleaner of food waste.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
