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.

Ley collected from Denmark at this time.

Christiania was until 1925 the name for Oslo, Norway; Ley collected there in 1937 also, at least one of his sheets being clearly labelled 'Christiania Norway'. Several of his sheets have been entered on H@H as from Denmark, but none of these name the country on the label; all are from Christiania, and I would advise these are all from Oslo, as Ley collected many specimens in Norway.
