distribution
is a widespread species that occurs on all seas (Carboneras, 1992 c; Grantsau, 2010). It nests in Chile, Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania, Malvinas / Falklands and islands around Tierra del Fuego from November to April. It also performs transequatorial migrations outside this period (Cooper et al., 1991; Carboneras, 1992 c; Hamilton et al., 1997; Petry et al., 2008). They reach RJ every year and rarely BA during austral winter (Sick, 1983). The records for Brasil are located in: BA in May, June, October and November (Lima, 2006; WikiAves, 2016; MZUSP); RJ in May, June and October (WikiAves, 2016; MNRJ); SP in May to August (WikiAves, 2016; MZUSP); SC in May-June (WikiAves, 2016) and RS in different months with a population peak in July (Petry et al., 2008).
