Only 7 Leach*s Storm Petrels were seen, from June 5-10, indicating 
that this species has moved north of our area, 
A total of 21 birds recorded as Phoenix Island Petrels were seen, 
ail below 8^N in areas nearest the Line Islands* However, the single 
individual collected appears to be a Tahiti Petrel ( Pterodroma rostrata ). 
This would represent only the second record of this species by the 
Project, but there is a strong possibility that most or all of the 
"Phoenix Island" Petrels recorded at sea in this area are instead Tahiti 
Petrels, in which case it appears that the two species cannot be separated 
at sea. 
Only 6 Jaegers were present this month. One possible Pomarine Jaeger 
was seen on June 6. Three Long-tailed Jaegers were seen in a feeding 
flock on June 9 and two more possibly of this species were seen in the 
grid June 17*
