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."

taxonomic synonym:

Eleocharis (Coonjumba Billabong entity)

[n/a]

Etymology: The species is named in honour of my late colleague Dr Surrey Wilfrid Laurence Jacobs (1946-2009), who contibuted so much during his career to knowledge of the systematics and phylogeny of Australian waterplants, grasses and chenopods. With our common interest in plants growing in wet places, Surrey and I undertook numerous field trips together, including the one on which the type of this species and E. rivalis were collected.
