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.

This label is sufficiently more similar to Langley Kitchings' to make me foxed as to the collector - WHW's labels are all pretty much like:

It's Kitching's label. The BIRM attribution is erroneous.
