Stijn Cooleman commented on an older version of Puffinus lherminieri temptator:
Austin, Bretagnolle & Pasquet (2004: 852) suggest to mention P. temptator as a ‘species’. However, no systematical interpretation of their results is made, so the status of the taxon temptator remains unclear, and is best treated at species level until its relations are clarified, see Louette (2004: 96).
