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.

If so this is first evidence that L. subbiflorus occurred in vc10. Though the fruit appear too broad, it needs determination. The other sp it might be is Lotus corniculatus var hirsutus, Sell., which is known from two sites on the Greensand (this is on Lwr Chalk).
