Abstract

First occurrences of the Glaucous-winged Gull (Larus glaucescens), and hybrids between it and the Western (L. occidentalis) and Herring Gull (L. argentatus), in Utah are documented. Sightings of 14 individuals over two winters (1984–86) may represent an inland expansion of the winter range of this species.
