Copy of paper gratefully received.  Apologies for my misguided remark: Mlíkovský & Loskot designate a specimen collected in 1894 from near the northern Caspian region as the neotype for Larus cachinnans, fixing the well-known name in the current sense. Type locality: Kazakhstan, Aktyubinskaya Oblast', about 16 km SE of the settlement of Rodniki, Lake Kara-kul'; 49° 04' N, 58° 33' E, 290 m a.s.l.</blockquote>
