On the Alaska Unsubstantiated List: "In view of the AOU’s decision (Chesser et al. 2011) to split into two species the Old World Kentish Plover (C. alexandrinus) and New World Snowy Plover (C. nivosus), we re-examined the supporting evidence (photos of one bird, 23–24 May 1991, Nome River mouth, Seward Peninsula; on file AKCLC) for the sole Alaska report (Gibson and Kessel 1992) and unanimously agreed that, although of a “Snowy Plover” sensu lato, the photos do not point conclusively to either species." THIRD REPORT OF THE ALASKA CHECKLIST COMMITTEE, 2008–2012
