Abstract
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), determine endangered status for three petrel species (order Procellariiformes)-- Chatham petrel (Pterodroma axillaris) previously referred to as (Pterodroma hypoleuca axillaris); Fiji petrel (Pseudobulweria macgillivrayi) previously referred to as (Pterodroma macgillivrayi); and the magenta petrel (Pterodroma magentae)--under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). This rule implements the Federal protections provided by the Act for these three species.
