Transcription Notes:
Cabueres de Sarrapo - thought to be Guanapo - see https://archive.org/stream/mobot31753002924758/mobot31753002924758_djvu.txt Territory is: Tunapuna/Piarco, Trinidad Baffling, since literally the only place "Cabueres de Sarrapo" occurs online is the document in the link above, and that document 1) likely refers to this exact specimen and its label, and 2) does not provide any reason or evidence why this locality is "thought to be Guanapo". No hits, either, for just "Trinidad Cabueres", nor for "Trinidad Sarrapo" (nor for "Trinidad Sarapo"). Perhaps the locality given is a mangled transcription, itself, of "Sabana de Aripo" - a region in Trinidad's northeast? Regardless, given that the Trinidad Botanic Garden housed plants from a wide region (and that its herbarium was likely to have a collection from a wide region, as well), I've even set the Country to 'unspecified', since we can't be sure, without identifying "Cabueres de Sarrapo", where this specimen originated. -@mnathan
