Transcription Notes:
3. Changed this back to Samoa. American Samoa was not created until well after the date that this specimen was collected. [[True, but if the country is transcribed here as Samoa, that implies this specimen was collected on one of the 6 islands that today comprise the country of Samoa. Without more info, we can't be sure if this specimen came from one of those 6 islands, or from one of the 5 islands that today comprise American Samoa.]] [[Set the country as 'Unspecified', because it could be either Samoa or American Samoa. Couldn't find records online to pinpoint Safford's location in March 1888.]] Samoan Samoa - Safford spent time in Apia but not enough information on the label. Not American Samoa as this didn't exist until 1899/1900 -change to Unknown (Instructions)
