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.

Unsure of location on specimen #1: Caenlochan seems clear enough but not "Infar" "Infan" ? . Also #3: Clova Forfarshire = Clova, Forfar, Angus? Just want to be sure.

[Chris Liffen]

Think that it reads Caenlochan, Forfar.
Around and about Clova seems to have been a favourite hunting ground of a number of botanists;
Callater; A visit to Glens Clova and, G. C. Druce Midland Naturalist VI (1883) 7 ,
(Clova, Glen Doll) Short notice of a botanical trip to the Highlands of Scotland; J. H. Balfour Annals and Magazine of Natural History X (1842) 117.
