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.

Wood's 2nd specimen this sheet: 'S. Germain 4166', presumably France where he collected two days earlier, though on sheet 343170 he writes confusingly and atypically 'Boston 41606'. Possibilities include Saint-Germain-en-Laye and Saint-Germain-des-Prés.
