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.

Loch Shaw?

Could his handwriting have been particularly bad that day? I compared the L of Loch with the C of Cleveland, not dissimilar; I reckon Cockshaw, which is the name of a hill among the bogs of Ayton Moor according to the map, just east of Ayton NZ591108

Thanks, Perhaps it was cold and wet there?
