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.

Collector initials are incorrect on Birmingham label

The collector is E. Hooper

For comparison I've just had a look at some of the Leicestershire Potamogeton sheets at NMW (which are E.F.Cooper). The signatures match reasonably closely - I'm fairly sure this is the same collector.
