Sula. *TpHIS variety of the Gannet was fent to me in 

 Auguft 1779, by Hugh Stodart, efq; of Tre- 

 ganwy, in Caernarvon/hire. I do not recollect that 

 it has been obferved in Europe fince the days of 

 Dr. ffoier> a phyfician at Bergen, who procured 

 it from the perroe IJles, and fent it to his friend 

 Clufius. It has fince been feen frequently in Falk- 

 land IJlandy and in the South Seas, efpecially on 

 the coafts of New Holland and New Zealand. 

 Seamen call it the Port Egmont Hen. 



This bird differs from the common Gannet 

 only in thofe particulars : in having fome of the 

 fecondaries feathers black •, and the middle feathers 

 of the tail of the fame color : whereas both, in 

 the common fort, are entirely white.

I was favored by Sir John Cullum y bart. with 

 the notice of this fpecies being BritiJJj; he obferved 

 numbers of them which had been taken in the Ger- 

 man ocean ; none exceeded {cv^n inches in length. 

 LiNNiEus does not attribute to them a greater 

 fize than that of a Perch.
