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.

Any better interpretation of the word after "Cull Is"?

"Balmuto". There are 61 other Syme specimens from Balmuto on H@H.

I can usually get the right county, a first (I hope) to get the wrong country! Useful to know he 'culls' his specimens else could have got Cull Island, which seems to be not much more than a sandbank emerging at low tides, with a very remarkable flora. Amended, Thanks. Mike d'A
