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.

Is this really Turin? Clova or Angus much more likely. The second name reads like ??'Pitscandby'

[Roger Horton]

Yes, it really is Turin, but Turin Hill (252m OS NO5153) which has Pitscandly Hill about 2km to the west (211m OS NO4952). Both within 10km of Forfar the home of George Don senior and junior, the latter being about 11 years old at the time.
