Chatham Petrel

Pterodroma axillaris


The Chatham Petrel (Pterodroma axillaris) or Ranguru (Maori) is a medium-sized, grey, white and black gadfly petrel. It is endemic to the Chatham Islands, New Zealand, and until recently was restricted to the 218 ha Rangatira or South-East Island.

Illustration by Joseph Smit, 1896 The head, back and upper-wings are slate grey, while the shoulders and upper-wing coverts are a deeper grey giving a dark M pattern across the spread upper wings. the forehead is mottled grey and white, and the underparts are white. The under-wing is white except for dark outer tips to the primaries, and a narrow dark trailing edge. A black diagional band runs from the bend of the wing to the body at the base of the underwing (which distinguishes it from the similar Black-winged Petrel with the latter having a narrower band not extending as far as the body).
