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: Hooker & Harvey indicate in the type statement and the protologue they consider there to be more than one variety. They name the second variety - var. B bifida. Edyvane & Womersley (1993):239 indicate that the illustration tab LXXIII is of a cystocarpic plant. The specimens in BM are male and tetrasporic, the cystocarpic plant was not found. No lectotype was chosen from these specimens. Parkinson (1980) Halymenia The Pettifogging Press p.14 does not indicate which of the type material he studied. Halymenia latissima H & H represents the earliest name for the taxon Rhodoglossum gigartinoides. The combination R. latissima (H&H) comb. nov. cannot be made since this name was used by Agardh to describe different material.
