Pterodroma brevipes (Collared Petrel)

Synonyms: Procellaria brevipes (homotypic)

Wikipedia Abstract

The collared petrel (Pterodroma brevipes) is a species of seabird in the Procellariidae family. It is sometimes regarded as a subspecies of Gould's petrel (P. leucoptera). Its breeding range is uncertain and it is currently known to breed only in Fiji where it occurs on Gau and possibly other islands. It formerly bred in the Cook Islands and may still breed in Vanuatu and the Solomon Islands. It is an unconfirmed breeder in Samoa, American Samoa and French Polynesia. The population from Vanuatu was considered to be a new subspecies Pterodroma brevipes magnificens in 2010.
