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.

Ben what? Any help appreciated...k

[David Price]

Ben More? But GR is NN42 which doesn't match GR given by Wallace. The year is more likely to have been 1933 (see dates Wallace collected in vc88)

[Chris Liffen]

I would agree that it could be Ben More - as written.
On the 22nd, there is a sheet to say he was in Crianlarich - just to the West of Ben More http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/268932/
