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.

i'm having difficulty determining the name of the collector/presented by, can someone enlighten me? i keep wanting to read it as "Hayes or Bloxam" but don't think that is correct

I think you're right about the label, hopefully eventually someone may recognize the style of the sheets or handwriting and pin-down which of the two it is.

I've added an entry for 'Hayes or Bloxam' to the drop down list of suggested names.

thanks for posting about this,

regards.

There is Herne in Kent where there are a number of othere Large Baker sheets for this date. However there are no records for that hectad on BSBI database. Hurn in Hants looks the most promising - as there are records for C. patula in SZ19.
