494 The Tuhinares in the North Atlantic Islands. 



specimen from this island in the Tring Museum is a very 

 young chick obtained on the 20th of that month. During my 

 stay on Montaiia Clara, from June 7 to 14, many birds and 

 eggs were unearthed. All the birds were sitting, and every 

 one of the twenty eggs which I blew was perfectly fresh. 

 From the above dates it will be seen that the breeding time 

 of Bulwer's Petrel in the Canary Islands is the same as that 

 in the Madeira Group.

 Fulmarus g. glupischa is an inhabitant of both sides of the 

 north Pacific Ocean according to the distribution given in 

 Godman's ' Monograph.^ 



Record of occurrences in the Noi'th Atlantic Islands. 



The single example of the Pacific Fulmar is recorded by 

 Harcourt and included in his list of the Birds of Madeira. 

 An undoubted straggler, this is the only record of the 

 occurrence of the species in these seas. Unfortunately, no 

 data are given, nor have I been able to trace the skin, if, 

 indeed, it still exists. 



I have somewhat reluctantly included this bird in my list 

 as I cannot help thinking that the single specimen was 

 possibly the Common Fulmar (F. g. glacialis). Had it not 

 been that the bird was positively recorded by Harcourt as 

 Procellaria pacifica And., I should have been inclined to 

 omit it altogether.
