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.

Only one confirmed C. vulpina from vc10, in the 1940's from King's Quay also in SZ59. C. otrubae is v likely but a sp with the macromorphology of C. vulpina has been seen by the nearby Blackbridge Brook [SZ5590] and in coastal marshland below cliffs at Lake [SZ5882].
