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 think this should be called Eleogiton fluitans in accordance with Stace ?

Thanks for posting about this, I've update the specimen id and also the taxon dictionary mappings.

Also, thank you for the detail with grid-referencing of this specimen - the next update to the software, that I'm currently working on, will have a field to record the basis and precision of geo-references.

regards,

Tom
