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.

C caespitose is an old name for C nigra, which I've entered. The name entered on h@h, C salina (ie recta) is impossible for Southern Britain. Strawson has no specimens from the North.
