Of the current 13 million Ecuadorian population over half are Mestizos, those of Spanish and Indian descent. According to the area they habit they are called \"montuvios\", or \"cholos\" in the coastline for example. Where as in the Andes they are nicknamed \"longos\", or \"indios\". The main concentration of black people are in the province of Esmeraldas in the north west of Ecuador with the rest spread around the other provinces along with other white cultures in the major cities.
