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: Two Wilson specimens in MEL are D. dichotoma. Womersley 1967 Australian Journal of Botany 15:210 indicates that all the Australian records are D. dichotoma but as yet this has not been investigated. Adams 1994 Seaweeds of New Zealand. An Illustrated Guide indicates that this species may be D. dichotoma, although the taxon is accepted in later New Zealand floristic accounts.
