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.

Does anyone know the collector Close, Lhose ?

Could it be the mysterious A. Guillon? He only collected rather special things! (P. grandiflora, Primula farinosa and Corynephorus canescens)

[David Price]

But this is "A[lexander] G[oodman] More" of Cybele Hibernica fame.

That's a relief - Guillon seemed rather abstruse and I hadn't come across More before! , though I now see http://www.botanicgardens.ie/herb/census/webbheyday.htm.
I must get to know Irish botany.
