Evidentiary scope

The gathering has a collector, a number and a town, and no date at all. The catalogue gives a collector, a number, a date and a locality. It is a single gathering and shows neither a continuing population nor a living germplasm holding, so it supports neither a landrace nor a feral classification. The accession is classified Other. No conservation priority is assigned.

Georeferencing

No coordinate is given and none is asserted.

Editorial treatment

The locality and province come from the label, not the catalogue. GBIF's locality field holds [..]. The label writes the place as Caroline and the printed division line as TRANSVAAL; the town in what is now Mpumalanga is Carolina. The locality field carries the modern spelling and the article quotes the label's.

The date line on the label is blank and the catalogue records s.d. No date is entered and the title uses s.d.

The image carries no licence and is used under a fair-use rationale.
