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.

I didn't write this note, but moved it from the sheet notes to feedback.
I have entered it as D. flexuosa as I am sure that's right. Strangely there are no other sheets from Herts on H@H from Shrewsbury School though.
