titi

The Titi or Muttonbird Islands are located near Stewart Island / Rakiura in the far south of New Zealand. The islands are not permanently inhabited, and are named for the traditional harvesting ("muttonbirding") of the sooty shearwater by Maori. These birds are known as "muttonbirds" due to their supposedly mutton-like taste.

The titis, or titi monkeys, are the New World monkeys of the genus Callicebus. They are the only extant members of the subfamily Callicebinae, which also contains the extinct genera Xenothrix, Antillothrix, Paralouatta, Carlocebus, Lagonimico, and possibly also Tremacebus.

The sooty shearwater (Ardenna griseus) is a medium-large shearwater in the seabird family Procellariidae. In New Zealand it is also known by its Maori name titi and as muttonbird, like its relatives the wedge-tailed shearwater (A. pacificus) and the Australian short-tailed shearwater (A. tenuirostris).
