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.

Am I correct in designating 4855 as Arthur Chater's collector's number? and, is there a list of collector's numbers anywhere?

[Roger Horton]

Yes, Arthur uses collector's numbers. He also regularly gives 6-digit grid refs.
Here 43/170712 = SK170712 which is on the River Wye in Monsal Dale near Brushfield Hough.

Thank you for that info.
