Genus Fulmarus is a taxonomic group that consists of two bird species: the Northern Fulmar and the Southern Fulmar. Being a scientific term, it may not have synonyms in the usual sense of the word. However, there are alternative ways to refer to the birds in this genus. For example, Northern Fulmars are also called Arctic Fulmars, while Southern Fulmars are known as Antarctic Fulmars. Moreover, both species are sometimes referred to as fulmars simply. These seabirds are known for their specialized adaptations that allow them to survive in harsh marine environments, where they feed on fish, squid, and other prey. Despite being closely related, Northern and Southern Fulmars differ in their appearance, behavior, and breeding patterns, making them fascinating subjects of study for ornithologists and ecologists alike.
