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.

on review, can't make out last part of location: and has this been det. as collector Mudd through eg. the writing? Can't see any ref. myself

It's not a Mudd sheet - the label looks like a 'Hayes or Bloxam' sheet and they collected around Myton, Warwickshire in 1874.

I think the confusion may have been due to the place name being misread as Ayton, which would fit Mudd, but there are few specimens from him after 1860 (and it's not his handwriting).
