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.

Has been determined as Veronica serpyllifolia, not V fruticans as entered on h@h

Hi Nick,

Where there is a recent (last 20 years or so) and credible det. slip on a sheet please mark that determination as preferred, as otherwise the sheet stays primarily listed under the filed taxon and the discrepancy may not be spotted.

At a later point it will be possible to review all the sheets where the preferred name isn't consistent with the filing name.

regards,

Tom
