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.

is it Kukenthal, as on label, or Ku Kenthal as on drop-down list?

Hi Keith,

Thanks for reporting this. I think there may have been a problem with the way the name was parsed due to the umlaut accent, resulting in the surname being incorrectly split. I'll investigate this to prevent it happening again in the future.

regards,

Tom
