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.

I cannot locate Ley or a W G in either Gloucestershire or Somerset at this date so have chosen Somerset as my book says C pumilum rare in south on chalk or limestone. right or wrong?

[Chris Liffen]

W G could be West Gloucester ?
some sheets eg http://herbariaunited.org/sheets/BIRM/23199.jpg have St Vincent's rock in W Gloucester.
