The red-billed tropicbird (''Phaethon aethereus''), also known as the boatswain bird is a tropicbird, one of three closely related seabirds of tropical oceans. ==Distribution and habitat== The red-billed tropicbird occurs in the tropical Atlantic, eastern Pacific and Indian Oceans. The Indian Ocean race, ''P. a. indicus'', was at one time considered a full species, the lesser red-billed tropicbird from Pakistan and western India. It breeds on tropical islands laying a single egg directly onto the ground or a cliff ledge. Breeding in the Western Palaearctic occurs on the Cape Verde Islands and attempted breeding on the Îles des Madeleines off Senegal. Total numbers in 2000 were probably less than 150 pairs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.birdguides.com/webzine/article.asp?a=147 )〕 It disperses widely when not breeding, and sometimes wanders far, including five records from Great Britain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.birdguides.com/species/species.asp?tx=327 )〕 In July 2005, one was found in eastern New Brunswick, Canada, and another sighting at Matinicus Rock, Maine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://projectpuffin.audubon.org/matinicus-rock )〕 There was confirmed sighting on Lord Howe Island near Australia in November 2010.
