Monteiro's storm petrel
Monteiro's storm petrel, ''Oceanodroma monteiroi'', is a seabird species from the storm petrel family, Hydrobatidae. The cryptic species was once considered to be conspecific with the band-rumped storm petrel.〔M. Bolton, A.L. Smith, E. Gomez-Diaz, V.L. Friesen, R. Medeiros, J. Bried, J.L. Roscales & R.W. Furness (2008) "Monteiro's Storm Petrel ''Oceanodroma monteiroi'': a new species from the Azores" ''Ibis'' 150 (4): 717–727 〕 The species is apparently endemic to the Azores.

The existence of a separate species was first hinted at by the discovery of two distinct breeding seasons of ''Oceanodroma'' storm-petrels in the Azores.〔Monteiro, L.R. & Furness, R.W. (1998). "Speciation through temporal segregation of Band-rumped Storm Petrel (Oceanodroma castro) populations in Azores?" ''Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. B'' 353: 845–953.〕 Both populations were initially thought to be of band-rumped storm petrels; however, one population breeds during the cool season, and the other during the hot season. A closer study of these two breeding populations found differences in their morphology and moult. Examination of the mtDNA found that the two populations were indeed genetically isolated, and the hot-season-breeding population was elevated to full species rank, ''Oceanodroma monteiroi'', Monteiro's storm petrel.〔 The species is named for biologist Dr Luis Monteiro, who was the first to notice morphological and acoustic differences between the two seasonal populations from the Azores.
