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.

Why is this C dickieana? It is not recorded from Settle and collector thought it was C fragilis.

[oldnick]

I would suggest adding fragilis as the alternative name - preferred or otherwise

[mossysal]

Why not get it right?
