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.

This has been preferentially labeled as O. aquatica but I reckon the upper leaf collected on 5 Jul looks more like Ley's origional id of O. crocata (Leaflets cuneate at base, serrate with obtuse teeth ovate... while the lower leaf and flowers is O. aquatica leaflets' lobes lanceolate /ovate with acute tips ands fruit that looks more ovoid than cylindrical?... Any opinions (assuming they remain recognised as seperate sp.)?
