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 find 'Hs' quite strange, also occurs on similar sheet http://herbariaunited.org/specimen/230666/ I assume it doesn't relate to the site, and also is not written like a person's initials. Highlands?? He has no other specimens from 1871

The numbers are a red herring, 152.16.47 is the Kent taxon classification and P4368 is the herb@home photo number (used for the early photos at Manchester)

The 'Hs' is odd - I assume it refers to a collector, but have no idea who.

numbers entered by my 'predecessor'. I'm still thinking maybe Highlands!
