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.

Collected by "Do" ?

This means ditto, and as with so many other Hume sheets, the label & details are on the back; and at the bottom of the H@H photo. However, the collector's name actually is not recorded. The date is 1839 not 89, incidentally. The handwriting, date and place mean the collector is most probably Joseph Woods - compare with http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/314532/
