Hi Dave,
Try this link then click on "View Sample" in top left hand corner of page,
scroll down to p. 173.:
http://books.google.com.au/books/about/Handbook_of_Avian_Hybrids_of_the_Worl
d.htm?id=MwInO7z_Y3oC&redir_esc=y
The book states that the Lesser Black-backed Gull (Larus fuscus) has been
recorded interbreeding with L. argentatus (Herring Gull), L. cachinnans
(Yellow-legged Gull), L. canus (Mew Gull), L. glaucoides (Iceland Gull), L.
hyperboreus (Glaucous Gull) and L. ridibundus (Black-headed Gull).
L. heuglini (Heuglin's Gull) has only been recorded interbreeding with L.
argentatus (Herring Gull).
L. dominicanus (Kelp Gull) has been recorded interbreeding with L.
argentatus (Herring Gull) and L. delawarensis (Ring-billed Gull).
So there were no records of Kelp (Cape) Gulls interbreeding with Lesser
Black-backed Gulls up to 2006, the year that this book was published.
Cheers,
Stephen

Interesting - I cannot see them - pages 124-180 are not shown when I browse
the book online. Maybe I am doing something wrong?
