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.

It's 8mo (i.e. August) 1853, WM = William Mudd. Most plants from Cleveland, 1852 or 1853, are Mudd's (see message board "As clear as Mudd".
