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."

Acacia bancroftiorum Maiden

, legitimate

, scientific

Maiden, J.H. (1918), The tropical Acacias of Queensland.

Proceedings of the Royal Society of Queensland

26-29

[tax. nov.]

Type: "Type from dry stony ridges at Beta. In flower 1st July, 1913 (J.L. Boorman)."

Etymology: "This interesting species commemorates the Bancrofts, father and son, the former the late Dr. Joseph Bancroft, and the latter Dr. Thomas Lane Bancroft, who have done splendid work in the elucidation of the flora of Queensland (to mention only one phase of their scientific activities)."
Comment: The specific epithet was published by Maiden as "bancrofti" but he also states that the taxon was named in honour of multiple male persons with the surname Bancroft. The epithet is thus corrected here to bancroftiorum in accordance with ICN Art. 60.8(b) (Shenzhen Code, 2018).

APC Comment: Acacia falciformis appears to hybridise with A. bancroftiorum in the Leichhardt District, Qld. Natural hybrids between A. macradenia and A. bancroftiorum are known, and these resemble A. holotricha.
