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.

mossysal wrote

small notch in fruit suggests near U glabra. B & H only have montana (= glabra) and campestre (? = procera - no entries in IPNI or Flora Europaea)

[oldnick]

Is 'surculosa' not an error for suberosa (ie corky-barked)?

[mossysal]

'Surculosa' was the default name on the sheet but as you say U. suberosa = U. campestris. I have changed the default name. Thank you.
I do wonder sometimes how these strange defaults arise often in contradiction to perfectly good collectors' names!?
