| Abstract | The family Alcidae primarily inhabit coastlines and open ocean, remaining on saltwater for the majority of their lives. Only a few species, such as Kittlitz’s Brachyramphus brevirostris and Marbled B. marmoratus murrelets, breed inland (Nelson 1997, Day et al. 1999). Alcids are highly specialized for a life on the ocean and rarely make inland movements; such movements are most often facilitated by mechanisms of vagrancy (Munyer 1965, Sealy & Carter 2004). |
