# Recent publications on ACAP-listed albatrosses and petrels

It is the aim of *ACAP Latest News* to list all scientific publications on ACAP-listed albatrosses and petrels as they appear in the literature.  For most papers the abstracts are included.  However, from time to time others will be listed by title only - as for the suite below.

 Recent publications on "potential candidate" shearwater species of the genera *Calonectris* and *Puffinus* will appear soon in separate postings.

 You can help by submitting PDFs of your relevant scientific papers for listing to John Cooper at [john.cooper@acap.aq](mailto:john.cooper@acap.aq).
