Geographic Range [top]
Range Description: The species has a wide range comprising four flyway populations. H. o. ostralegus breeds from Iceland and Scandinavia east to north-west Russia, south through U.K. to north-west France, with isolated populations in the Mediterranean, and winters on coasts south to West Africa. H. o. longipes breeds from west and central Russia south to the Black, Caspian and Aral Seas, and east to western Siberia, and winters on coasts from East Africa through Arabia to India; H. o. osculans breeds from coastal north-east Russia through Manchuria to the west and south coasts of the Korean Peninsula south to Fujian province, China, and winters in eastern China and along the west coast of the Korean Peninsula (more than 50% of the population is thought to winter at just one site, Yubu Island, South Korea and a further 25% are thought to winter at Lianyunggang, Jiangsu, China; Melville et al. 2014). H. o. finschi breeds and winters in New Zealand (Hockey et al. 2013). Two thirds of the H. o. finschi population winter in the northern half of the North Island, while breeding is confined to the South Island, mainly east of the Southern Alps (Sagar and Veitch 2014).
