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.

on review, date unclear, may be 1853? Also, I can't see where Owens College is mentioned

[John Hughes]

I agree the date looks more like 1853. Is/was the herbarium housed in Owen College? It makes no mention of this on the database but it seems an odd thing to have made up( as you say, there is nothing about Owen College on the sheet).
