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.

Date?> Is this Hamburgh?

The 'date' appears to be one of the usual serial numbers of Townsend's sheets. I read the 'signature' at bottom right as 'Isle of Wight'. No other info on sheet.

Thanks, Nick.

I just wondered whether you recognised the hand as Hamburgh's as you seemed to be interested in this collector. It is really too early for Townsend.
