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.

Cannot read name of collector A Bo*th****. Possibly Borthwick?

[Chris Liffen]

underneath Borthwick (?)
from AB - Arthur Bennett - it is is his handwriting
see http://herbariaunited.org/wiki/File:Bennett1.jpg

[midge]

Thank you for that but where can the A Bo*th**** name be recorded?

[Chris Liffen]

I suspect the collector "coll" on the sheet was "Borthwick", and then some were passed on to Arthur Bennett ......

so I would be tempted use the notes field to add a sentence about the 'illegible name' possibly Borthwick and that the sheet has A Bennett's initials and handwriting

[David Price]

I suggest collector was Andrew Brotherston; see http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/306465/

[Chris Liffen]

Neat solution

[midge]

Brotherton does look like the name . Many thanks.
