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.

'from an old quarry a mile west of Edinburgh' (Edinbro')

I agree with you about John Knapp, but have no idea which of the two it is:

or
John Leonard Knapp
