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.

Does this say root recd frm W Cumming?

I think it looks more like W Curnow

[mossysal]

I agree except that Curnow hardly ever collected outside Cornwall!

I've gone with consensus, but stll bemused by Curnow coll. in Derbys.
