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.

Are Painter's Whitchurch specimens from Shropshire SJ5441 or N Somerset ST6167? He lived close to both locations at different times (Stirchley, and Knowle, Bristol); and specimens from the latter are often specified on labels. Where the county isn't specified, maybe they're from Salop? However, note that in 7/1884, Painter has 3 specimens of Lotus glaber from 'Whitchurch'; on just 2 of them N Somerset is specified. Altogether, 11 specimens out of 19 are edited as from Somerset; I haven't checked the labels on all 19.
