Cape Verde storm petrel
The Cape Verde storm petrel (Oceanodroma jabejabe) is an oceangoing bird found in the Atlantic Ocean, especially around the islands of Cape Verde. It was at one time considered to be a subspecies of the band-rumped storm petrel, but is now considered to be a separate species by the British Birding Association, the Dutch Birding Association and other authorities.[2][3]

Description
This bird is darker in plumage and the white rump is less conspicuous than Leach's storm petrel.[5]
gollark: I may be explaining this slightly terribly, but it lets you differentiate functions of functions of x (or whatever you're differentiating with respect to).
gollark: Rewrite that as e^(some function of x), apply chain rule.
gollark: What do you mean? As in, if it involves 1/x or something like this? That's what the chain rule is for.
gollark: This can also be written as a function of x explicitly if you want (it is one implicitly).
gollark: It's the same. If you say "y = whatever (in terms of x), dy/dx = derivative of whatever (in terms of x)", this is equivalent to saying "f(x) = whatever (still in terms of x), f'(x) = derivative of whatever (in terms of x)".
