We describe a new disjunct population of Blue-footed Booby Sula nebouxii at Islote González in the Islas Desventuradas archipelago. Though likely much larger, the population size at the time of our survey was a minimum of 16 breeding pairs. On 14–15 December 2020, two pairs of boobies with nestlings and four pairs with empty nests were found. Likely the species is a recent arrival to the archipelago, perhaps during one of the strong El Niño events between 1970 and 2001 (especially 1982/83, when the species was first recorded in Chile). Blue-footed Booby might also nest on different areas at San Félix Island and some smaller islets around the archipelago, where they would have no nesting-site competition from the larger Masked Booby S. dactylatra.

| We thank the crew and officers of the OPV Toro, particularly Commanders Jaime Jara and Andres Silva and Officer Rodolfo Rodas. We thank Lieutenant Patricio Sanhueza and Corporal Anibal Pizarro with their tenacious boat skills, which made it possible to land at Islote González. The Ministry of Defense, especially the ex-Minister of Defense Alberto Espina, Mr. Santiago Diaz, Commander Juan Soto, and Commander Cristian Rieschell provided support on this project. We also would like to thank Sergio Trucco for his good companionship in the field. J. Aguirre provided an unpublished record of immature birds found in Viña del Mar, Chile. Paul Sweet, Thomas Trombone, and Peter Capainolo of the American Museum of Natural History, as well as Gary Graves and Christopher Milensky of the Unites States National Museum of Natural History, provided data on historical specimens from Islas Desventuradas. Thanks also to Allison J. Schultz and Kimball Garret of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County for their support on this project. This paper is a partial result of the project on seabirds of the Chilean oceanic islands. We thank David Ainley, Kyra Nabeta, Nicole Wild, and two anonymous reviewers whose comments improved the manuscript. |
