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.

Place name [?] appears to be Grasington Oxfordshire but there is no records of West collecting there

Not Garsington, Oxon, but Grassington, Yorks vc 64, coll 1887.
