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."

[tax. nov.]

Type: "Theda Station [precise locality withheld for conservation reasons], Western Australia, 9 March 2014, R.L. Barrett RLB 8868 (holo: PERTH 08614709; iso: AD, BM, BRI, CANB, DNA, HO, K, MEL, NSW, PERTH 08615039)."

common name:

Theda Boronia

[n/a]

Etymology: "The epithet is derived from Theda Station, on the Kalumburu Road, where this species is found. Theda Station was apparently named for Theda, the wife of the founder of the station lease, so while the epithet recognises the station, this species is given a feminine epithet to reflect the history of its name."
