Abstract

On 29 November 2006, Pagen observed and photographed a storm-petrel of the genus Fregetta, most likely a White-bellied Storm-Petrel (F. grallaria), at 14° 50.52' N, 112° 35.46' W, 952 km (514 nautical miles) southwest of Cabo Corrientes, Mexico, and 456 km (246 nautical miles) southeast of Isla Clarion, Mexico. This location is over 1600 km from any previous record for this genus in the eastern Pacific Ocean.
