Map:

Georeferencing Method: Corrected label coordinates ([Coordinates provided on label are invalid (see verbatim); reported coordinates are a prediction based on the assumption that lat/long digits on label correctly represent the collection location in DD MM.MM format: ie. 13° 33.14' S 41° 50.75' W. Ploting the lat/long data from the label in this format removes the violation previously encountered when digits were interpreted as DD MM SS, and matches the precice locality string with a high degree of accuracy.])
