I have been cleaning up our data before we move our specimen catalog from
Filemaker to Specify. There are a few oddball localities that I have been
unable to find. This one -- "Palmer's Assorting" appears on specimens
associated with S.H. Scudder. The specimens are species found in the
Western US, and I checked several Scudder papers but came up with nothing.
Has anyone else encountered this locality (if it is a locality)?
TIA,
Mark</pre>

I had a look on the web...and found this reference at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__archive.org_stream_mobotbca-5F20-5F02-5F00_mobotbca-5F20-5F02-5F00-5Fdjvu.txt&d=AwMC-g&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=xU45NVnSup3SK-P82T5BOpL01NXq1LySXHCudDA2KSY&s=J9kiFDRSxFsfJbSbap5eGsPV4KlUVRr4Hra_0e56wvM&e=">https://archive.org/stream/mobotbca_20_02_00/mobotbca_20_02_00_djvu.txt</a>
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre>The single female specimen, the type, simply bears the label " Palmer's assorting,
No. 1155." <font color="#006600">Other numbers of his assorting, ranging from 1148 to 1166, refer to
Yucatan, Isthmus of Tehuantepec, and neighbouring localities. It is probable, there-
fore, that this insect comes from the vicinity of the boundary of Mexico and Central
America. </font></pre>

and see the foot note on this page:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.jstor.org_stable_4063730-3Fseq-3D2-23page-5Fscan-5Ftab-5Fcontents&d=AwMC-g&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=xU45NVnSup3SK-P82T5BOpL01NXq1LySXHCudDA2KSY&s=wTGT-0HRZzhkKXToCHNkhptrrirSaesMjD-m2-nVxIo&e=">http://www.jstor.org/stable/4063730?seq=2#page_scan_tab_contents</a><br>
<br>
Then, I had a look in the idigbio portal, search=assorting<br>
I got one hit<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.idigbio.org_portal_records_34eddbeb-2D8e12-2D4e24-2D8db1-2Ded106239a0ca&d=AwMC-g&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=CLFZJ3fvGSmDp7xK1dNZfh6uGV_h-8NVlo3fXNoRNzI&m=xU45NVnSup3SK-P82T5BOpL01NXq1LySXHCudDA2KSY&s=oPkWte8rgCVFQis0FVs9C7RPm42Fh7eoyu3GFLwmrS4&e=">https://www.idigbio.org/portal/records/34eddbeb-8e12-4e24-8db1-ed106239a0ca</a><br>
<br>
and I see a note there in the Collection Remarks field: <br>
Additional label reads "Palmer's Assorting No. 1157" - might refer
to Miriam A. Palmer notes.<br>
<br>
Hope these clues help.<br>
