Cephalopod Beaks from the Stomachs of Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) Found Dead on the Washington Coast [link]Website  abstract   bibtex   
The stomach contents of 28 Northern Fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) found dead on the Washington coast in late February and early March 1976, were examined and identified. Cephalopod beaks representing nine families were the only identifiable food items in the stomachs. Other foods reported from Fulmar stomachs are listed. The following cephalopods are reported here for the first time from the stomachs of Northern Fulmars: Abraliopsis felis, Gonatus pyros, Gonatopsis borealis, Histioteuthis heteropsis, Chiroteuthis calyx, Taonius pavo, and Japetella heathi. The bathy-mesopelagic squid Taonius pavo represented over 43% of the squid beaks found in the Northern Fulmar stomachs.
