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.

I think this specimen is from Arran, Clyde rather than Isle of Wight

Thanks for reporting this (but if you spot errors like this then please feel free to make the change yourself).

Based on other collections by Syme, the collection year was also mis-transcribed.

regards,

Tom
