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.

Country infered. no records of thes person in data bases. But The standard author abbreviation Noe is used to indicate Friedrich Wilhelm Noë (18?? - 1858), German botanist. Worked as pharmacist in Fiume and later as director of the Galata - Serai botanical gardens in Constantinopel [Istanbul].

I was really pleased to see your detective work as this label was very familiar to me! Having spent ages previously trying to match a similar one to anything. There are several specimens from this guy, scattered at disparate places around the menu, and I am going to put on 'messages help & support' a request to unify these. 2 comments - on your sheet, the name is spelt with the French acute accent, not the double dot; you have entered Germany where no country is given; another sheet states 'Fiume' (I think??) but has been entered on H@H as France!

Glad I can do something useful for a change but Chris Liffen pointed me at Noe, I did not put the accent on must have been H@H.
I think I have now seen three examples of his work, maybe four.
Germany was a guess as that appears to be where he lived and worked.
As to Flume I have had two sheets where the i.e. A. anything and anything is written on in pencil in addition to the that typed.
