it says 'Collected by F Hewett fide Jas Groves' have I filled in collectors correctly/

[Tom Humphrey]

I've always taken fide to mean the identification 'confirmed by' rather than implying a direct role in collection, but I can't find anything which directly supports that (the literal translation appears to be 'faith').

Hopefully someone can explain the meaning more precisely.

Thanks Tom, shall I leave it as is or change Groves to the determiner?
