Evidentiary scope

The database gives a collector, a date, a province or district, and a soil. It records no use beyond the names the label carries. 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.

The museum publishes one image of the sheet, about 560 by 800 px, and states no licence for it. It is shown here under fair use with a rationale on the file page, following Éloïse's ruling of 18 September 2026 that an all-rights-reserved herbarium scan may be used that way, and her ruling of 22 September 2026 that every sheet an article cites is shown.

Georeferencing

The database's place is Chiang Mai, which it gives as a district and a province and no closer. No coordinate is asserted, under the coordinate ruling of 18 September 2026.

Editorial treatment

The database gives the date in Thai, in the Buddhist Era. The article gives both forms. For these years the conversion is CE = BE - 543.

The database's collector field is ผู้จัดเก็บ, which covers both collecting and keeping. Where it lists several names, the infobox holds the first and the article quotes the whole string, as the wiki does for other multi-collector gatherings. Whether the names are of one person or several, and which are given names, was not established: Thai names in this database carry no comma between a given name and a surname, and the one sheet that does use a comma separates two people that way.

The page is titled by its catalogue number because the source gives no collector's number, on Éloïse's ruling of 23 September 2026.

The collector field holds seven given names, one of them twice, as the database gives them. They are likely a group of students; the database does not say so, and the page does not.

These notes were recorded during accession preparation. Source citations remain in the article. Éloise 17:24, 23 September 2026 (+07)
