Dear Manu It doesnt matter if you have given multiple numbers to different vouchers of the same specimens. Munnar is a big area. If you have more details to provide in Munnar then write it separately or I will personally prefer this: Specimens Examined: Kerala, Idukki Dist., Munnar, 12.06.2011, Manudev 30124, 32331 (DEV) Pankaj
