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.

H@H has 8 specimens which might possibly have been collected by D J Ward - but in 7 of them, dated 1948, the signature appears more like O J Ward, and 6 of these have been edited accordingly eg http://herbariaunited.org/sheets/K/K001063466.jpg The handwriting of all the labels is very similar, so could they be the same collector?

O J Ward makes appearance as a member of the Kew Guild (example: 1947/48 [pdf]), and the 6 specimens bearing this name are all from Kew, collected 1948.

D J Ward has 2 specimens, one (372598) dated 19/7/1948 and from Kew, perhaps should be re-edited to the above. The other (this one) from SLBI via LNHS and 1927 probably from a different collector.
