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.

Any clues re collector? This is not the J Ellis on the menu, who collected a century later. Anyone disagree with my identification as P setiferum?
