Birds observed during a visit to Rima Islet of the Snares Western Chain on 21 November 1976 were counted. The results of previous landings on the five main islets of the Western Chain are discussed and a distribution of the four breeding species (Snares crested penguin, Salvin’s mollymawk, Snares Cape pigeon and fulmar prion) is proposed. Their breeding cycles are discussed.
