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.

User comments about this sheet

I couldn't decipher 'Fionnay' l-h label

[Roger Horton]

This sheet has just turned up as 'partially completed'. Google search of Fionnay finds a place in Switzerland, and several documents relating to mountain flora, in French or German. No direct reference to this taxon at the Swiss site, but I have added 'Switzerland' to the location as it seems possible. I have scoured map of Great Orme for anything that might otherwise fit but without success.

Interestingly there is another sheet from Switzerland (361148) a couple of days earlier.

How amazing - thankyou

[David Price]

Cotoneaster cambricus is a Welsh endemic, so the Swiss plant is a different species - but which, I do not know.
