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."

Showing Eucalyptus sect. Limbatae

Myrtaceae Juss.

, legitimate

, scientific

[tax. nov.]

Etymology: from the Latin limbatus (bordered), referring to the edge of the seeds

[secondary reference]

Type: "Eudesmia tetragona R.Br. [considered an intergrade between E. extrica D.Nicolle and E. pleurocarpa Schauer; Nicolle (2000)]."

Comment: "The section names Limbatae Brooker and Complanatae Brooker could both apply to this group Eucalyptus subg. Eudesmia (Myrtaceae) 52 Vol 41 and have equal priority, being simultaneously published in the same work. Here we opt to use the name sect. Limbatae, thus establishing priority under Art. 11.5 of the International Code of Nomenclature for Algae, Fungi and Plants (Turland et al. 2017), because that usage more closely matches circumscriptions used in recent classifications."
