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."

Etymology: "This species is named P. forsteri in honour of Mr Paul Forster, a botanist on the staff of the Queensland Herbarium. His collections of various 'Canthium' species from throughout Queensland have been most valuable in gaining an understanding of some of the Psydrax species complexes. Most of the illustrations provided in this paper are drawn from his collections housed in BRI."
