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.

'Whittlebury Forest' - Whittlebury is near Whittlewood Forest; Druce may have conflated the names? He has a similar specimen from Whittlebury in addition to this one.
