Jouanin's Petrel -was known previously from the northwestern Indian 
Ocean where It was recorded from the Gulf of Men, the coast of 
southeast Arabia, possibly the southern Red Sea, and throughout the 
Arabian Sea south to the coast of Kenya and possibly east to India 
(Bailey, op.cit.j 238-239)* Its breeding area has not yet been found, 
but presumably lies somewhere within the above area. 
This record thus constitutes yet another instance (cf. Bourne, 
Ibis, 1967? 109*1^1-167) of long-distance vagrancy in petrels and 
is the first record of Jouanin's Petrel from the Pacific Ocean.
