Collector,"/taxondetermination[rolecode=collector]/collector_id/party/{givenname/_namePart/first,middlename/_namePart/middle,surname/_namePart/last}",Brad: Correct for VB. Nick: is there a way to specifically identify this party as collector of a specimen?

Sex,"/taxondetermination[rolecode=collector]/definedvalue[*_id/userdefined[tablename=taxondetermination,userdefinedname=sex]]/definedvalue","Brad: OMIT. Apparently not used by this institution and of uncertain applicability to plants. With other collections, *sometimes* used for phenological information (if specimen in flower, in fruit, sterile, etc.). If so, this is important information we should keep. Bob, Nick, anywhere for phenological information in VB and VX?; Aaron: Keeping it because it's useful for some collections"
