It is also known as the diablotín. The probably-extinct Jamaica petrel (''P. caribbaea'') was a related dark form, often considered a subspecies of this bird. This long-winged petrel has a grey-brown back and wings, with a white nape and rump. Underparts are mainly white apart from a black cap (that in some individuals extends to cover the eye) and some dark underwing makings. It picks food items such as squid from the ocean surface. The black-capped petrel is nocturnal at the breeding sites possibly to avoid predation by gulls, hawks or crows. Like most petrels, its walking ability is limited to a short shuffle to the nest burrow. Although this seabird once breed on steep mountainsides of the Greater Antilles, at least three confirmed breeding areas remain in the high mountains of Hispaniola (in Sierra de Bahoruco in the Dominican Republic, and Massif de la Selle and Massif de la Hotte on the Haitian side of the island). In 2015, birds were also confirmed nesting on a second island (Dominica) which had long been suspected given historical nesting there.〔http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-news-from-elsewhere-33732782〕 Records of Black-capped Petrels from Cuba suggest that at least small populations of these birds may also persist there. The local Spanish name, ''Diablotín'', means "little devil", called so because of its night-time habits and the odd-sounding mating calls, which may have suggested to locals the presence of evil spirits in the dark. A mountain peak where it formerly bred in Haiti (and another in Dominica, Lesser Antilles) is still named ''Morne Diablotin''. The species, once abundant in the Caribbean, is now far less common. It is an uncommon but regular visitor to the south-eastern United States, and an extremely rare wanderer to western Europe. Causes for its demise include habitat loss, introduced predators, and direct harvesting by humans. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Black-capped petrel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
