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.

Think this is one of Ley's - he's not recorded anywhere in the first half of May 07 so potentially available! If agree suspect another another unattributed May 07 specimen from Glouc http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/310906/ may be his also. Anyone agree??

Seen some more like this and I think the writing and style is that of Edward Metcalfe Day.

Yep, Day's script, layout and content is a much better match than Ley's. Amended. Thanks.
