Fratercula coraiculata . Homed. Puffin. Uncommon out of the coastal 
vaters of the Aleutians. Two birds vere observed at 46° 04'N 173° 00'E 
on 16 October. It is interesting to note that the large numbers of 
puffins picked up on Kure Island in 1963 were this species and not the 
following. 
Lunda cirrhata . Tufted Puffin. The most common alcid in pelagic vaters 
covered by our cruise. The Tufted Puffin was found as far south as 43° 
49'N 173° 04'E.
