- Puffinus baroli
Identification
26–28 cm (6¼-11 in)
- Very dark upperparts
- Pale area on upperside of secondaries, more so on worn birds
- White underparts
- Underwing very white with thinner black trailing edge than similar species
- Wings shorter and rounder than similar species; does not reach tip of tail on resting bird
- Body relatively longer than similar species
- White cheeks extend up to sides of crown encircling dark eye
- Rounded head
- Dark peak reaching slightly down into the white underside behind head
- Slim bill shorter than similar species
- Legs and feet pale blue
- In flight on a calm day may remind of a smaller Alcid.
Similar Species
Manx Shearwater, Little Shearwater, Boyd's Shearwater and Audubon's Shearwater.
Distribution
Breeds in the northern Atlantic on Azores, Desertas, Salvage and Canary Islands.
Taxonomy
This is a monotypic species.
Clements[1] and Gill and Donsker[2] agree on the taxonomy of this species. Dickinson[3] however treats the shearwaters differently.
Barolo Shearwater was formerly considered to be a subspecies of Little Shearwater. It was later split together with Boyd's Shearwater as Macaronesian Shearwater which was split again into two monotypic species. Dickinson follows Austin and others and has transferred baroli (and boydi) to Audubon's Shearwater.
Habitat
Breeds on islands and coastal cliffs, otherwise pelagic.
Behaviour
Flight
Often holds head up. Quick wingbeats.
Breeding
Nests are made in burrows, in small colonies.
Diet
Diet includes fish and molluscs.
