Hi again, I can't remember who gave me the following list - it includes the
pdf sent earlier (with wrong url) and another stora paper (at the end) also
reference to Lee Post's book - which is available and I find quite handy.
Does anyone have the Hodgetts just mentioned by Fay?

Subject: Re: [ZOOARCH] Seals, dolphins and whales
Hi Sheila, Ariane, Mrs. Zogg and everybody else interested,
reading the paper of Ericson & Storå carefully I have to admit it is
not the one I had in mind. I saw it once during a stay in Helsinki
University but had no chance to copy it then. It was a real ID-Guide
with criteria for the different seal species not only a osteometric
guide.
I hope someone can solve this. At least Jan himself should know.
Best
Christian
