Notes
Park Species Detail: Amerson et al. mentions that one Audubon's shearwater was observed flying inland at Lavania Cove on Tau (in NPSA) in 1976, and that roughly 500 individuals breed in cloud forests. O'Connor & Rauzon state that calls were heard from a few dozen to 100-200 on summit of Ta'u in 1999-200, and that this species is the second most common Procellarid after Tahiti petrels, and their populations are likely stable due to inaccessible cliff-nesting habitat., Park Species Data Source: NATUREBIB-601628, O'Connor & Rauzon 2004; NATUREBIB-138047, Amerson et al. 1982
