We conducted presence or absence and distribution surveys for seabirds throughout Haleakalā National Park from April through August 2005. Results showed the presence of `Ua`u (Hawaiian Petrel, Pterodroma sandwichensis), Koa`e Kea (White-tailed Tropicbird, Phaethon lepturus dorotheae), `Iwa (Great Frigatebird, Fregata minor palmerstoni), and Noio (Hawaiian Noddy, Anous minutus melanogenys). Although `A`o (Newell's Shearwater, Puffinus auricularis newelli) was not detected during the survey, this species is often heard in Kīpahulu Valley. `Ake`ake (Band-rumped Storm-Petrel, Oceanodroma castro) were not detected during the surveys but are likely to occur in Haleakalā National Park.
