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.

Hi Tom,

Is it possible that Fraser sent a separate specimen to Leefe and Boswell in the previous year. Once he'd had it determined he went back and collected two samples the following year, one in April and one in August. The other thing I'm wondering about is whether Baenitz asked Fraser to go back to the original spot and collect it on his behalf.
