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.

I'm not sure for the second collection date

[oldnick]

The 2 labels are completely different collections, which happens commonly, so trying to combine the information creates confusion.
The Oxfordshire specimen was definitely not collected by A G More, and collector's name is not stated; and the date is 13/5/1888.
