The Madeiran Storm Petrel is a rare medium-sized seabird. It nests only on the high slopes of Madeira Island in the Atlantic Ocean and belongs to the storm petrel family.
The Madeiran storm petrel differs from related species in smaller size, special wing pattern, and voice. It is important for nature as part of the marine ecosystem and helps scientists monitor ocean conditions. The species is threatened with extinction due to predators and destruction of nesting sites.
