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.

no collector or herbaria

Welcome to H@H I noticed your post on this specimen and have taken the liberty of reviewing the sheet, hope you don't mind.
Very many of Gloucestershire sheets have no collector and I would assume in this case that the specimen was collected or sent to this Herbaria, so Ex Herb would be Gloucester museum or who-ever it was submitted too. There is no need to name the Ex Herb in these cases.
The details of where collected if present, go in the box above "notes" OS grid reference is automatically inserted into the box above this.
Unless the place name is not in the data base, in which case, you can find it by clicking on the small buttons to the right of the grid ref box, or using Google Earth.
The accession number is mostly in the top right on these sheets.
After a while you will get to recognize collectors 'styles'.
Hope you enjoy H@H.
If you encounter any problems I or any of us will be pleased to help.
