Erik's recent photos of Thayer's gull reminded me that , If my memory is 
correct, the paper that resulted in it being elevated to specific status has 
been discredited or is at least highly suspicious.  If that is correct, has 
anyone followed up with any published papers supporting (or refuting) the 
specific status of Thayer's gull?

Greg Seegert,  who is looking for definitive info showing that Thayer's is not 
just an east-west clinal variation of Iceland gull
