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?

Drawings are by (alphabetically): T., Bigelow, McGovern, G., Møhl, J., Møhl,

followed by McGovern et al.) This is work in progress and does not deal yet

Series of books suggested by Peter Popkin. Diane Hanson says the seal & 
sea-lion volume is on its way to the printer (as is a bird volume). She 
finds his books useful. No, I don't know why this is volume 4. His on-line 
order form lists five books of drawings so far, none of which covers 
pinnipeds.

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
