Rio Xufexufe is a river flowing in Lembá District in island of São Tomé, São Tomé and Príncipe. Its etymology is of Angolan origin (Angolan spelling: Shufeshufe or Shufeshufi) The river flows southward and empties into the sea between the beaches of Palma and Pipa, it receives the waters from Rio Morango and flows through the settlements of São Miguel and Monte Rosa in front of Ilhéu Gabado. One of the birds founded within the stream include the São Tomé olive pigeon (Columba thomensis). Another individual of the São Tomé fiscal (Lanius newtoni) was sighted in 1990 near the source of the Rio Xufexufe, and a number of birds have been spotted since then.[1]
