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.

Thanks for posting about this.

I think Loch Arklet appears to be on the border of Stirlingshire and West Perthshire. However the drop-down list only had an entry for Stirlingshire. Unfortuneatly this happens quite often. If you notice discrepancies such it's fine to over-ride the pre-existing locality, and pick the region you want from the list.

regards,

Tom.
