Saunders's Gull, 29–32 cm, is a Vulnerable gull breeding in coastal saltmarshes of China and Korea, wintering along East Asian coasts to Vietnam. Black hood in breeding plumage, white wing-tip mirrors. Feeds on crustaceans and invertebrates in tidal mudflats. Threatened by reclamation of Yellow Sea tidal flats.
