Dry streambeds in Africa are commonly referred to as **"wadis."** A wadi is a valley, ravine, or channel that is dry except in the rainy season, and it is a term used in various regions in the Middle East and North Africa. In different parts of Africa, they may also be called **"donga"** (in Southern Africa) or **"vlei"** (in some contexts in Southern Africa), though "wadi" is the most widely recognized term for such features in arid and semi-arid regions.
