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.

The illegible site on bottom left label is also found on J Woods sheets of same date, http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/323557/ and http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/314166/ - on the latter the script is clearer and appering like 'Ben Crucpin'. Woods collected in mid-Perth that week, and a week previous on Ben Nevis

[Chris Liffen]

how about this place? Ben chruipen Snippet from Flora Scotica p 1123 John Lightfoot

[oldnick]

That evidently is the place - although I can't locate it

[Chris Liffen]

From Flora of Perthshire Francis Buchanan White 1898

[oldnick]

Belated thanks! On the map, I couldn't locate it/her, Breadalbane being a large area at fine scale! Have entered just as NN63

[mossysal]

Could Woods' Ben Cruipen be Ben Chreachain at the head of Glen Lyon?
