This coast is of ecological importance as a channel for the mass migration of birds of prey. Location and description The ecoregion consists of a coastal strip in Eritrea s Southern Red Sea Region continuing to along the Red Sea coast to Obock in Djibouti. Flora The flora of the coastal strip consists of herbs and grasses suited to the dry climate such as Aerva javanica , Cymbopogon schoenanthus , Panicum turgidum , and Lasiurus scindicus , along with some Umbrella thorn Acacia tortilis and Acacia asak trees and Rhigozum somalense and Caesalpinia erianthera shrubs. Fauna This is one of the busiest Bird of prey raptor migration routes in the world as birds such as buzzards and eagles make their way to Africa for the winter along the Red Sea coast and across the Bab el Mandeb strait. Animals found here include sea turtles and gazelles including Dorcas gazelle Gazella dorcas , Soemmerring s gazelle Gazella soemmerringii and Salt s dik dik Madoqua saltiana . There are three near endemic reptiles Ogaden burrowing asp Atractaspis leucomelas , Ragazzi s cylindrical skink Chalcides ragazzii , and the gecko Hemidactylus flaviviridis . Threats and preservation The coast is sparsely populated with the only town of any size the small port of Assab in Eritrea. However grazing of livestock has reduced the natural vegetation, there are no protected areas and there is potential for further change to the area with the completion of the planned coast road from Djibouti to Eritrea. Hunting of the gazelles, turtles and seabirds occurs.

One of the world s longest coastal plains is located in eastern South America . The southwestern coastal plain of North America is notable for its species diversity. The Gulf Coastal Plain of North America extends northwards from the Gulf of Mexico along the Lower Mississippi River to the Ohio River , which is a distance of about 500 miles about 800 km . During the Cretaceous age, the central area of the United States was covered by a shallow sea, which disappeared as the land rose. Large fossilized aquatic birds called Hesperornis and Ichthyornis , found in western Kansas , indicate that the shallow sea was rife with fish. The coastal plain lying alongside the lower Mississippi River may be associated with a shallow sea which had existed 9 billion years ago. Coastal plains are low lands.
