Records from Mar del Plata

Conservation status according to BirdLife International: Near Threatened

Other common names: Albatros Corona Blanca ( De Nueva Zelanda ).

Consider that records from field observations (except for specimens found dead) can be either Thalassarche cauta or T. steadi, as they are practically indistinguishable in field observations except for some adults of T. cauta. For more information, see Savigny and Carbajal (2015).
