Apparently some Carex disticha sheets have been entered on h@h as C chordorrhiza, eg http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/388020/

Hi Nick,

Thanks for posting about this. I've correct the two specimens that you noted, but it's likely that there may be some other miss-identifications.

Several of the specimen images from the BM were affected by a problem with the linking of taxon names to images. The museum is aware of the issue and once they send me a revised list of taxon names then I'll update the sheets to correct any remaining problems. (I'm also delaying loading any more BM sheets until the names are correct - there are several thousand more images waiting, which would obviously be better loaded with well-checked names from the outset...)

regards,

Tom

There are quite a lot of these, and I think the easiest way to pick them out, is searching all specimens of 'C chordorriza', not from W Sutherland or E Inverness (also, first discovered 1897)
