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."

Text: "The NCVP failed to reach a majority recommendation on Proposal (2013) to conserve Myrcia against Calyptranthes. The GC initially rejected the proposal (9–15–1–0). However, a convincing case for conservation was put to the GC by a group of 23 workers on New World Myrtaceae and a second vote (18–4–3–0) reversed the initial decision, i.e., Myrcia is conserved against Calyptranthes."
