One of the rarest gulls in the world, the entire population lives on the Galapagos Islands and is estimated at 300 400 pairs. The adult plumage , acquired in the third year of life, consists of a black head, black wings, and with a dark gray body and a paler gray belly. The bill and legs are black, and the inside of the mouth is scarlet. They have white upper and lower eyebrows, with red lids. Immature gulls are generally dark brown. Lava Gulls are solitary nesters, laying two olive colored and well camouflaged eggs that take 30 days to incubate. Young birds fledge at 60 days and are cared for by adults for a short period. They are omnivores like most gulls, generally scavenging or stealing from nests, but will also catch fish , small crustacean s, and newly hatched lizard s. The Lava Gull is categorized as vulnerable by the IUCN Red List because it exists in small numbers and though the population is stable, it faces numerous threats.

It is the only species in the genus Malpaisomys . The Lava Mouse is known from Holocene and Pleistocene deposits in the eastern Canary Islands, including Fuerteventura , Lanzarote and nearby islets. It became extinct during prehistoric times, probably because of the arrival of humans and the livestock such as dogs they brought with them. A study of its skeletal characteristics suggested that the Lava Mouse lived in fissures opened in the lava fields Boye et al. 1992 . The morphology biology morphology of its teeth indicates that it was a herbivore Renaud & Michaux 2004 . Its evolution ary relationships are unresolved due to its fairly generic morphology. Rodents on islands generally increase in size during the course of their evolution see also insular gigantism the lava mouse was fairly small for an insular rodent some 20cm in overall length Boye et al. 1992 . Thus, it is more likely than not that it evolved from small Pliocene mainland genera Paraethomys , Occitanomys , or relatives thereof, than being a later derivative of the Deomyinae Renaud & Michaux 2004 .

The adult is slate grey, which helps it blend in with the hardened lava . The back feathers typically have a silvery sheen and it has a short crest on its head. When breeding, the heron has a black beak and bright orange legs, but they fade to grey after the breeding season. Lava Herons are typically seen hunched over and they have a sharp alarm call. These highly territorial birds are found in intertidal zone s and mangrove mangrove groves on all of the Galapagos islands. The Lava Heron stalks small crabs and fish slowly before quickly spearing and eating them. They have also been known to eat the flies that gather near cacti . Unlike most herons, these birds nest in solitary pairs in either the lower branches of mangrove trees or under lava rocks. They can breed year round, though typically from September to March, and can mate up to three times a year. These birds have no fear of humans. This heron is considered a subspecies or even just a colour morph of the Striated Heron B. striata by some authorities including the American Ornithologists Union AOU and BirdLife International , and was formerly lumped with this species and the Green Heron B. virescens as the Green backed Heron B. striatus .

It is known from fossil remains, and was only described in 1990. It was intermediate in size between the Manx Shearwater and the Little Shearwater . The remains of the species are particularly common in lava field s. The species is thought to have survived the arrival of the first settlers in the Canary Islands, and become extinct after the arrival of European settlers in the 15th century. It is suspected that the species went extinct due to hunting pressures and possibly the arrival of introduced species such as rat s. References J. C. Rando, J. A.
