Xantus' Murrelet
Endomychura hypoleuca
Jan. 14 Monterey Bay boat trip, Monterey Co. Calif.: 2 - white below,
uniform dark above (no contrasting gray back) - obviously
Craveri's / Xantus' types, but not seen well enough to eliminate
Craveri's with 100% certainty - but no dark projection
into breast as in Craveri's and Mike Parmeter said they
had lots of white on underwings. Xantus' very rare in winter,
but no records for Craveri's.
