  • Dow's puffin (Fratercula dowi) is an extinct seabird in the auk family described in 2000 from subfossil remains found in the Channel Islands of California. It was approximately as large as the modern horned puffin and its beak appared to have been an intermediate between the rhinoceros auklet and the horned puffin. It lived during the Late Pleistocene and Early Pleistocene on the Channel Islands, where it nested alongside the ancient murrelet, Cassin's auklet and Chendytes lawi. (en)
  • La fratercula di Dow (Fratercula dowi Guthrie, Thomas & Kennedy, 2000), è un uccello estinto della famiglia delle Alche (Alcidae) così classificato nel 2000 da resti subfossili ritrovati nelle Channel Islands, California, Stati Uniti d'America. I resti includono scheletri articolati e diverse migliaia di ossa disarticolate. Sono stati trovati in un orizzonte pedologico di eolianite risalente al pleistocene superiore sulle isole di San Nicolas e di San Miguel. Essi sono compresi tra i 12 000 e i 100 000 BP e, come i gusci d'uovo associati, includono sia uccelli adulti che immaturi che apparentemente sono morti nelle loro tane nelle loro colonie di allevamento.
