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.

This is identified as Cephalanthera pallens,
which is a synonym of Cephalanthera longifolia. However, the specimen actually
looks closer to Cephalanthera
damasonium.
