Barolo shearwater a distinct species (Sangster et al. 2005), as has "Clements Checklist". The American Ornithologists' Union followed in 2013. Features that distinguish the Barolo shearwater from the Manx shearwater and other North Atlantic "Puffinus" species include the pale face, silvery panel in the upperwings, shorter more rounded wings, and blue feet. As well as the pale face with the darkly contrasting eye. The Baraolo shearwater occurs in the Macaronesian Islands and breeds on the Azores, Desertas, Selvagens and Canary islands. The largest colony, of 1400 pairs, occurs on the Selvagen Islands. The Barolo shearwater feeds in the upper 15m of the
Dune shearwater which bred in lava fields. Extinction of the species occurred about 2000–3000 years ago, contemporaneously with the first human settlement of the islands by the Guanches, with the cause likely to be human predation. Dune shearwater The dune shearwater ("Puffinus holeae"), also known as the Canarian shearwater or Hole's shearwater, was a relatively large shearwater which bred in the Canary Islands archipelago of the North Atlantic Ocean. Fossils have also been found in the Figueira Brava cave archaeological site on the western coast of Portugal. The specific epithet honours Mrs Jean Hole who collected fossil material of the species on
