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.

I am inferring the collector, from http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/261147/ to be Winterbottom (unless it's C E Salmon!) given partial similarity of handwriting, and limited collections from this month and region for comparison. Is anyone more familiar with the options?

I don't think the handwriting is so similar to the sheet labelled Winterbottom
