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.

have I got the collector right? Doesn't look much like 'W A' Mudd! But you should see my signature!

I think you're right. It may say 'Rev' Mudd rather than W.A. - this is still the same person. The locality and date are consistent with the other Mudd collections.
