? Larus albus, Gunnerus, in Leem's Beskr. Finm. Lapp. p. 285 [not 

 p. 265 as cited by Stejneger] (1767 ; nee Scop. 1709, nee P. L. S.

* Gunnerus says that he was told of, but never saw, " a pure white Gull 

 intermediate in size between L. canits and L. fusciis," sxhich he thought "might 

 be the same as the Senator Martensii, described as having a black bill and black 

 feet." Donndorff, who usually cites the notes of Gunnerus to Leem, omits all 

 reference to the above, probably considering the identification — if such it may 

 be called — as too vague. It seems undesirable to reject the time-honoured 

 specific name eburnea on such slight ground.
