It was subsequently examined by Peter Pyle in2011 who concluded that the original identification was incorrect and the specimen represented aspecies new to science, Bryan’s Shearwater.In addition, Kazuto Kawakami, Masaki Eda, Kazuo Horikoshi, Hajime Suzuki, Hayato Chiba andTakashi Hiraoka have found six specimens of a small Puffinus shearwater since 1997 that ismorphologically similar to Bryan's Shearwater on the Bonin Islands, northwestern Pacific. Theyundertook genetic examinations of the Bonin Island samples, which has confirmed they are all Bryan'sShearwater, the same species as that found by Amerson Jr. on Midway in 1963 (Kawakami et al2012).Edwin Horace Bryan (1898-1985), American naturalist and one time curator of collections at theBernice Pauahi Bishop Museum in Honolulu between 1919 and 1968.Chesser, R.T. et al 2012.
