name

You will get suggestions as you type in your query, they tell you what your query will return, and you can select one for an exact match.
The query is not case sensitive.
This search uses an automatic wild card at the end of the query to match all endings (unless the query is in double quotes).
The query is an ordered set of search terms, so viola l. will match "Viola L." and "Viola L. sect Viola."
Putting double quotes around your entire query will cause it to be matched exactly (except case). e.g. "Viola L." will match just Viola L.
You can use a % as a wild card inside the search query e.g. hakea elon% be or "hakea % var. elon% benth." to find "Hakea ceratophylla var. elongata Benth."

Comment: This name is the accepted basionym for Gracilaria canaliculata but is based on the type of Sphaerococcus canaliculatus Kuetzing non C. Agardh. Withell et al. (1994) Aust. Syst. Bot. 7:297, 345 believe that if this taxon is treated as an heterotypic synonym of G. salicornia then it represents a distinct subspecies.
Comment: Some Australian records are G. eucheumatoides especially those in northern Australia see Withell et al. (1994:345).
