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 'Mrs Richards'? the other 2 sheets of the set are no more specifically labelled re collector, place, date; but have been edited as 'Mrs Mary Alice Eleanor Richards'

BSBI Membership List for 1955 gives Mrs H M Richards of Tynllidiart, Dolgellau as a Life Member who originally joined the Society in 1922.

Yes. She was the first de facto Vice-county Recorder for VC48. Her herbarium is at NMW
