Provenance: N 376 and 492 R.A. Nott Collection, Norweb Collection, SNC December 1988 (7987), July-August 1989 (4167).
The cataloguer surmises that it is likely the specimens of N 4367 and 4401 in this lot were also formerly in the Nott and Norweb collections (4367b and 4401c), but in the absence of images taken at the time and any surviving Norweb envelopes, nothing can be proven
