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.

CBB & BW written in pencil on sheet. Are these collectors rather than Cooke?

CBB & BW are recording a re-identification, from Symphytum tuberosum (the name Cooke gave the specimen) to S. orientale.
