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.

'Reed Suffolk' is curious; Little has several sedge specimens from there of this date - in Suffolk, there is Rede, between Bury & Haverhill; whereas in Herts, which is more Little's area, is Reed, between Buntingford & Royston. On the basis of http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/317156/?image - a sheet of this same taxon, collected in 1846 by Coleman, I think this is Reed Herts and that Little somehow managed to make a mistake with his label
