| Recently taxonomists have split the Masked Booby (Sula dactylatra) into two species: the widespread Masked Booby (Sula dactylatra) and the Nazca Booby (Sula granti) which nests in the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, and several Pacific islands west of Central America | Recientemente los taxónomos han separado la Boba de Nazca (Sula granti) de la más ampliamente distribuida Boba Enmascarada (Sula dactylatra). Esta especie nidifica en las islas Galápagos, Ecuador, y varias islas del Pacífico al oeste de la costa centroamericana. |
