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.

Am I right in believing that this comes from Tours in France?

[Chris Liffen]

Certainly looks that way; the Cher flows through that region.

R Cher runs through S outskirts of Tours; Lomax certainly collected in France (eg OXF); I've seen this sp. growing along the banks of both the Cher and Loire in this area (for what that's worth!)
