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.

who is collector of these specimens? Someone will probably recognize the label style....

Thanks. The label styles don't seem similar enough...could be 2 friends out collecting together? I believe I'll hold this open in hopes that more similar labels turn up.

The printed labels are of the kind associated with plants collected by Rev J H Thompson,
