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.

Does anyone recognize this place name?

Swanbister; though I have searched in vain for anywhere resembling the previous 2 words! I see the species, which I hadn't heard of before, was 'formerly a frequent flaxfield alien' (Stace)

perhaps too much of the local fire-water!
