Text Appearing Before Image:
t the Mediterranean, it often appears on the southern coast of Spain and on those of Provence, wheremany individuals have been killed. It is never seen in the Adriatic. Specimens killed in Senegal and thosefrom the Cape of Good Hope differ in no respect from those killed in Provence. The habits and mannersas well as the food of this species do not differ from those of its nearly allied species the Manx Shear-water, Puffinus Anglorum, which, as is well known, feeds on all kinds of marine animal matter in a state ofputrescency. The head, cheeks, and all the upper surface pale ash grey, the edges of the feathers on the back beinglighter on their external margins, the scapulars, wings, and tail darker; quills deep black; on the sides ofthe neck and chest are waves of light grey; under-surface pure white; beak yellowish, becoming brownertowards the tip; feet and interdigital membrane livid yellow, the webs lightest in colour; irides brown. Our figures are rather less than the natural size.
