  • Collecting Event Remarks:
  • [verbatim horizon attribute: "Pliocene"] End of date collected range set to latest date of data entry for a cataloged item in this collecting event. Agassiz samples, label lost- "Original label missing... 13 Dec 92." Other label notes "Species was originally described from Peterburg, VA." but this doesn't necessarily mean this specimen is from there. Additionally, Peterburg is a mispelling of Petersburg, therefore I set the verbatim locality as Petersburg, VA?
