My own feeling is that measure numbers refer to measures on the PAGE.
So each individual measure, no matter how many times it is played,
gets one and only one measure number, and that number is the same
number in the score and all the parts.
This is the method that is maximally clear to conductors and
performers. (If you're doing a purely historical/analytical edition,
you may have different needs.)
So, in your example, the measure under the first ending is m.16, the
measure under the second ending is m.17, and the first measure
following the second ending is m.18.
Cheers,

Say you have a piece that begins with 16 measures repeated with the
last measure different for the second ending. What number does the
next measure get 17? 33?
Thanks,
