The Laysan albatross (''Phoebastria immutabilis'') is a large seabird that ranges across the North Pacific. The Northwestern Hawaiian Islands are home to 99.7% of the population. This small (for its family) two-tone gull-like albatross is the second most common seabird in the Hawaiian Islands, with an estimated population of 2.5 million birds, and is currently expanding (or possibly re-expanding) its range to new islands. The Laysan albatross was first described as ''Diomedea immutabilis'' by Lionel Walter Rothschild, in 1893, on the basis of a specimen from Laysan Island.〔Robertson, C. J. R. (2003)〕 ==Etymology== It is named for Laysan, one of its breeding colonies in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands.
