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.

'Iow' = Isle of Wight possibly?? No clues found on searching Miss Elgar or R Pryor (or ?'Elgin')

I think "Iow" is in fact "Sow 575", i.e. a reference to [Sowerby's] English Botany.

[oldnick]

Yes I see it as Sowerby now
