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: "Eremophila glabra subsp. psammophora: from Greek psammo- (sand-) + -phorus (bearing) (said to be sand-loving, which would be psammophila). Perhaps it bears sand grains caught up in the indumentum."
Comment: As indicated by George, the taxon name does not match the etymology supplied by the original author but since it is nonetheless orthographically correct the original spelling is to be retained under ICN Art. 60.1 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
