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: Wood and others e.g., Balech indicate that the circumscription of this taxon has narrowed since it was first described by Stein. Wood 1954 Australian Journal of Marine & Freshwater Research 52:208 indicates that some of the dinoflagellates described in the literature under O. magnificus or Histoneis magnificus(a) represent O. thurni rather than O. magnificus.
