Transcription Notes:
First pass at transcribing. Need to check species names before putting up for review. -@siobhanleachman cyano. for cyanocephalus? Physalia -- jellyfish? surely he meant Physalis! -- @nounandverber - Know you must be right @nounandverber. I've had a closer look at the last letter in that word and think its one of those squiggly "s" he does that can sometimes look like an a or an o (or an e!). Also being faint doesn't help. Anyway, have amended. Obviously I'd keep his original spelling if I was sure he wrote an "a" but with Vernon it's always a debate! Thanks for your help :-) -@siobhanleachman
