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.

changed to Chrysanthemum segetum - C. corymbosum is v different! As far as I know no botanists visited vc110 in 1876, so I'm noy very sure that this is Luib, vc110 [ie Clachan-a-Luib], but "Dis 110" hints that it is. Handwriting looks like Arthur Bennett, and therefore possibly not the original label?

Handwriting is Langley Kitching's. A plant collected in Arbroath is recorded as "Dis 22" so these are not vc numbers.

I find 14 of these Langley Kitching specimens in H@H, from Luib Perthshire in the same month; and am taking the liberty of editing in. They are in his characteristic handwriting and some at least are marked 'District 110'.
