N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

Salix pentandra bushes were still near Treglasta Farm at SX17618575 on 19th July 2003 on a small stream just south of the main River Inny, recorded by I J Bennallick BSBI recorder for East Cornwall. Though not actually on the river bank it is on the left bank side of the river and probably the ones which Little collected. I J Bennallick 30 January 2014.
