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.

User comments about this sheet

hallucigenia wrote

This sheet needs looking at by someone more knowledge then my self, as it consists of two small specimens and a letter from S.N. Bickham describing habitat and suggesting a hybrid it does not conform to the name on the top of the sheet.

It would appear to be a letter from Bickham (collector) to Ley (ex herb) about material collected at Portilas
OS Grid reference SO395275
