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.

location of specimen 3 please?

Krain; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carniola

[Roger Horton]

Yes. Krain, = Carniola, the original German name of historical region and duchy of Austria in today's Slovenia.

Germada- und Krim- Berg. Possibly two mountains:

Germadaberg (bei Billichgratz now Dobrova Polhov Gradec),

Krimberg now Vrh Krim highest peak (1107 m) in Krim mountains just W of Ljubljana.

Interestingly Polhov Gradec has a Lace Club with a web page mentioning a Dr Henrik Freyer, "a botanist who was custodian of the Land Museum in Ljubljana", perhaps the collector here!

Label very similar to 345197 also from 'Krain' but collected by Dr Graf.

I see that sheet is labelled 'Sumpwiesen (a swamp?) nm Laibach (the capital, Ljubljana)'. Apparently Ljubljana is known for being in a basin, surrounded by lakes and marshes and prone to floods
