St Levan common species such as northern gannet ("Morus bassanus"), Manx shearwater ("Puffinus puffinus"), common guillemot, ("Uria aalge") and razorbill ("Alca torda"), as well as rarer birds such as Balearic shearwater ("Puffinus mauretanicus") and Cory's shearwater ("Calonectris borealis"). The headland of Tol-pedn (or Gwennap Head) is favoured by birdwatchers and many travel the length and breadth of Britain to track rare seabirds. Some of the butterflies that can be found on the coast include grayling ("Hipparchia semele"), silver-studded blue ("Plebejus argus"), small pearl-bordered fritillary ("Boloria selene") and wall ("Lasiommata megera"). There is also a day-flying moth, the thrift clearwing ("Synansphecia muscaeformis"); the

There are two other shearwater genera. "Puffinus", which comprises about twenty small to medium-sized shearwaters, and "Procellaria "with another four large species.

The taxonomy of this group is the cause of some debate, and it is only recently that the Cape Verde shearwater has been split from Cory's shearwater. The species
