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.

Hi,
Welcome to herb@home

You could add W.H.Painter in the herbarium field (as the label at the top left shows that the specimen passed through his collection). He is also almost certainly the collector, but I would tend to err on the side of caution and not fill in that unless it was explicitly stated on the sheet.

UCW => 'University College Wales' - an oblique reference to Aberystwyth University, as the specimen is still in their herbarium there is no need to record this (though adding it as a further entry is not a problem).

regards,

Tom.
