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.

County not stated - annotated in pencil (by Hume?) 'most likely Surrey' but there is no Farnborough in Surrey...?

I also wondered Farnborough Warwickshire - but this is about 10 miles from F T's favourite site of Honington, and he didn't collect there until after 17th August. Townsend collected from Farnborough in 1873 and 1874, and each time all his other specimens were from Hampshire
