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.

Smith Adair seems to be a new name.... unless I'm misreading it?

Could it be Joseph Adair?

Yep agreed ...now convinced myself I'm seeing a faint leg to a "p" instead of "t" and "Jo" instead of "Sm". Thanks, amended! Mike d'A.
