New data on the Madeiran Storm Petrel (Oceanodroma castro) in the Canary Islands. New information is given on the status, distribution and reproduction of the Madeiran Storm Petrel in the Canarian Archipelago. The species was found to occur in Alegranza and Montaña Clara (N of Lanzarote), in Lobos (Fuerteventura), in the Roques de Anaga and Garachico (Tenerife), and in the Roque Grande de Salmor (El Hierro). The most important breeding places are the Roques de Anaga followed by Alegranza and Montaña Clara. The last two islands house very small colonies. The entire population of this storm petrel in the Canary Islands is estimated as less than 300 pairs. Altough reproduction seems to ocurr mainly between October and February, the capture of birds during July and August might suggest the existence of either a more prolonged breeding season or of two nesting periods.
El paíño de Madeira (Oceonodroma castro) es una especie típica de regiones tropicales y subtropicales del Pacífico y Atlántico. En este último se encuentra presente en los archipiélagos macaronésicos, Ascensión y Santa Helena (Harrison, 1983), habiéndose confirmado además su reciente reproducción en las Islas Berlangas (Teixeirs y Moore, 1983). En los archipiélagos macaronésicoa nidifica en ciertas islas de las Azores y varios islotes de Madeira (Le Grand et al. 1984), Salvajes (Jensen, 1981), Cabo Verde (Bannerman y Bannerman, 1968; Naurois, 1969) y Canarias (Martin et al., 1984).
La realización de este trabajo ha sido posible gracias a la concesión de un proyecto de investigación financiado por la Dirección General de Medio Ambiente del Gobierno de Canarias, destinado al estudio de las aves marinas nidificantes de las Islas Canarias con vistas a su conservación
