Evidentiary scope

The catalogue records the collector G. C. Theron, the date 4 December 1949 and the locality COLESBERG DIST.. No image of the label is published, so the label cannot be read, and the catalogue says nothing about how or where the plant grew. The accession is classified Unknown until the label can be read. No conservation priority is assigned.

The Botanical Database of Southern Africa publishes no image of this sheet. Its image count is zero, and so is the image count of all 1,361,966 rows in the database: the store is empty, and SANBI's own site still lists plant images among its plans. The accession carries no image until the herbarium supplies a scan.

Georeferencing

No point is given. The database gives the locality as COLESBERG DIST., the magisterial district of 1949, and no place within it. no source read gives the district's bounds in 1949, and today's units around Colesberg are not shown to be the same area, so a district point with an honest radius cannot be given. An earlier version of this note gave no point only because the herbarium database carries no coordinate for the sheet.

Editorial treatment

BODATSA publishes no per-specimen page: five permalink shapes were tried for a sheet and all answered 404. The accession cites the database itself, and the barcode identifies the sheet.
