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 5685 after Portsea Island the date collected? ie 5/6 1885.

[Roger Horton]

This is the date in the style used by Joseph Woods, which is year-month-day, so 5685 is 5th Aug 1856. The handwriting and this date style indicate that the collector was Woods.
