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.

i think the latin name is either primula or pinnata but am unable to decifer which one it is

I read this as Viola permixta Jord, which is indeed the hybrid of hita & odorata, named in Stace as such and also more correctly as V x scabra.
