We report a specimen record of a Broad-billed Prion found during a beached-bird survey in northern Chile on 28 February 2014. The carcass was in an advanced state of decomposition and the cause of death was unknown. Identification was based on morphological comparison with other prions. This record confirms the species’ occurrence offshore of Chile and emphasizes the importance of beached-bird surveys to increase knowledge about the dispersal of vagrant seabirds.
