Transcription Notes:
Pombilus nigerrimus = think Stelfox means Pompilus nigerrimus
Changed "Pombilus" to "Pompilus", since it's probably just a "p" that looks like a "b". Also, changed "arenata" to "arcuata" (Tenthredo arcuata being a valid name; Tenthredella arenata being...something I can't find any evidence for online). "Flavimarginatus" (right page) is probably a misspelling of "flavomarginatus". -@mnathan
Thanks so much for the corrections as well as the notes. It makes it so much easier to review! I am so impressed with your transcriptions as it took me ages to get my "eye" in with Stelfox's writing & as you can tell I still make errors! I think Stelfox's field notes are such an important resource for Irish biodiversity & really appreciate how accurate you are. If it helps here's a spreadsheet I've made on his commonly used species names. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E_Zc6xt1giFN2mfBuByQ7kpkW1_nLCcFaO_bBm8zjEE/edit?usp=sharing
Think it might be "[[mt.?]] form" on first page. Stelfox has used a similarly looking "mt." previously to indicate specimen has been mounted but I'm unsure of context here so I've left in [[?]]. Archives Smithsonian have asked that if there are "do." (abbreviation used instead of ") volunpeers are to transcribe as [[dittos for: text]] so I've edited to add that at bottom of 1st page. Confirmed [[bog?]]. -@siobhanleachman
