Black-browed Albatross (Thalassarche melanophris) Science Article 1
abstract
Albatrosses (Diomedeidae) feed mostly on cephalopods and fish, caught by surface-seizing or shallow diving (del Hoyo et al. 1992). Other prey items, such as seabirds, are taken only occasionally. In a review of the food of albatrosses, Cherel & Klages (1998) listed at least 12 seabird species of two orders (Sphenisciformes and Procellariiformes) found in the stomach contents of seven albatross species.
