The black noddy (Anous minutus), also known as white-capped noddy, is a species of tern in the familyLaridae. It is a medium-sized seabird with black plumage and a white cap that closely resembles the lesser noddy with which it was at one time considered conspecific. The black noddy has slightly darker plumage and dark rather than pale lores.
