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.

"Legit C. E. Britton" rubber stamped on label, but Britton appears to have spent this month collecting in Surrey. Is the stamp just an indication of his receipt of the specimen from the Exchange Club?

I've found a lot of these and have entered them all as ex herb for that reason
