It is also sometimes known as the Socotran Cormorant or, more rarely, as the Socotra Shag . Individuals occasionally migrate as far west as the Red Sea coast, but although the first specimen recorded was found on Socotra island, giving the bird its name, it is unlikely that it breeds there. The Socotra Cormorant is an almost entirely black bird. In breeding condition, its forecrown has a purplish gloss and its upperparts have a slaty green tinge, there are a few white plumes around the eye and neck and a few white streaks at the rump. Its legs and feet are black and its gular skin blackish. All these deviations from pure black are less marked outside the breeding season. Wing breadths of 275 310 cm have been recorded. There is little information on this species foraging or diet. Like all cormorants its dives for its food. Older reports suggest that it can stay submerged for up to 3 minutes, which is high for a cormorant and suggests that it would be capable of deep diving. However there are also reports of forgaging in flocks, and this is more usually ..., it is likely that many of these were Socotra cormorants.

R. socotranus is by some authorities held to be the only species of the then monotypic genus Rhynchostruthus , including all other golden winged grosbeak s therein as subspecies . But in recent times the three populations are usually considered a distinct species , with R. socotranus being limited to the Socotra population, the Arabian Grosbeak becoming R. percivali , and the Somali Grosbeak R. louisae ref Kirwan & Grieve 2007 ref . Description The males are grey brown overall with a black bill, a dark head with a black mask, large white cheek patches, and large, bright yellow patches on the wings and tail. The females are similar to the males though somewhat duller, and the juveniles are rather streaky and lack the adults distinctive head pattern. Ecology and status The Socotra Grosbeak is found in a variety of habitat s from the mountains to sea level. It typically inhabits fairly arid scrub or woodland dominated by spurge s Euphorbia , acacia s Acacia and juniper Juniperus . The fruits of these plants appear to form the bulk of its diet.

It is the only commercial airport that serves the Yemeni island of Socotra in the Arabian Sea and its capital town of Hadibo . The most remote Yemeni airport has nearly daily flights connecting the island with the mainland airport near Al Mukalla Riyan Airport where all aircraft make a technical stop on their route to the capital city of Sana a or the southern port city of Aden . The airport is located on the paved road that connects Hadibo on the northern coast with the main tourist attraction on the extreme west of the island, Qalansiyah beach. It takes about two hours from the airport to get to Qalansiyah, an unpolluted, quiet and romantic beach. There is no scheduled transportation service between the airport and Hadibo, but it can be reached within a quarter of an hour by any random collective bus or any other vehicle, most probably going westwards. When travelling by bus, tourists are typically expected to pay slightly more than local passengers. Normal fees vary between 30 and 50 Yemeni rials 1.00 USD 200.00 YRS .
