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.

Collector and site ?

I think Townsend again, Scilly Isles Cornwall.
Also I think the date is 6/1862 not 82, if so Townsend spent time collecting in Scilly.
