Oceanodroma is a genus of storm petrels. The genus name is from Ancient Greek okeanos, "ocean" and dromos, "runner".[1]
One species, the Guadalupe storm petrel (O. macrodactyla), is possibly extinct.
In 2010, the International Ornithological Congress (IOC) added the Cape Verde storm petrel (O. jabejabe) to their list of accepted species (AS) splits, following Bolton et al. 2007. This species was split from the band-rumped storm petrel (O. castro).
In 2016, the IOC added Townsend's storm petrel (O. socorroensis) and Ainley's storm petrel (O. cheimomnestes) to their list of AS splits, following Howell 2012. These species were split from Leach's storm petrel (O. leucorhoa).

The genus contains 17 species:[2]

- Guadalupe storm petrel, O. macrodactyla (possibly extinct)
- Tristram's storm petrel, O. tristrami
- Markham's storm petrel, O. markhami
- Black storm petrel, O. melania
- Ashy storm petrel, O. homochroa
- Hornby's storm petrel or ringed storm petrel, O. hornbyi
- Fork-tailed storm petrel, O. furcata
Taxonomy and phylogeny
The genus Oceanodroma was erected in 1853 by the German naturalist Ludwig Reichenbach with the fork-tailed storm petrel (Oceanodroma furcata) as the type species.[3][4] Phylogenetic analyses have found that Oceanodroma paraphyletic with respect to Hydrobates.[5][6] As a result some authorities have transferred all Oceanodroma species to Hydrobates, although other authorities continue to recognise the two genera.[citation needed]
The following cladogram shows the results of the phylogenetic analysis by Wallace et al (2017), who use Hydrobates for all species.[6]
