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.

There is a word after "Thame"

I thought maybe Thame Lee but can't find such on the map

[Roger Horton]

Sir J Benjamin Stone appears regularly to add such a word after Thame. It sometimes looks like 'xon'. An abbreviation for Oxon?

[David Price]

That's a very plausible suggestion & would make sense but the date in http://herbariaunited.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1187 has the symbol as an ampersand, leading to the conclusion that what is intended is "Thame etc."
