Record
Occurrence RemarksUpon IMS cleanup project, it was found that TNHC# 19770 contained 3 vials with different locality info (same species). IMS ledger shows 3 entries for IMS# 279. Each vial corresponds correctly to each ledger entry. Separated vials into 3 jars and re-catalogued TNHC# 58101 to reflect third locality data entry in ledger.

Georeferencing Annotation
—
Has not been Georeferenced because
This record, being part of the track 3 import, is not formally georeferenced by FoTX staff at this time. However, to allow mapping and visualization of this record, locality information has been provisionally accepted if provided by the donor or if location text could be matched to previously georeferenced records by FoTX team or donor data. For many records spatial error is either accepted from the donor (when provided) or derived based on coordinate precision.
