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.

Location correct? There are no BSBI records for New Forest.

Do you think there is a spooky resemblance to the lame writing of 'Oxfordshire' on the top label of
http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/279323/
Druce's other collections of this species on H@H are all from Oxfordshire, with labels written in varying neatness.
