Missing barcode

  • dolomedes by dolomedes

    This sheet has orchids from two locations, Surrey and Dorset, but only one barcode. I entered details of the Surrey location.

    Hi dolomedes, thank you for spotting this, I've taken a closer look at the sheet - one barcode and one label, but no data to indicate if the numbered specimens relate to either one or both of the two locations recorded! Also the reason no VC has been marked up on the sheet. Usually specimens numbered like this would be annotated in some way – I suspect a separate label with this data is missing here.

    Hi Kath, I don't understand. The specimens are numbered and the label indicates 1 & 2 are from one location and 3 & 4 are from the other.

    Yes, thank you for spotting this – specimens numbered 3 & 4 (Dorset) will be barcoded as a separate collection event.
