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.

This is one of numerous anonymous Carex specimens from Lanarkshire this month - any suggestions re collector? I can't find a 19thC 'JBM' with any related collection, which may suggest this label like others similar is mis-transcribed?
