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."

[tax. nov.]

Type: "Habitat in distr. Darling dicto prope flumen Helena in pago Mundaring Weir, parasitica in caulibus et ramis plantae Daviesia pectinata; fl. mense Martio. C.D. Hamilton, Martius 1946. (Typus in Herbario Perthense)."

Etymology: "Haec planta vocata fuit in honorem Caroli Donaldi Hamilton cuius sapientibus observationibus ego in notitiam plantae veni. Nomen etiam praestat avo suo mortuo, A. G. Hamilton, qui suis operibus, notatu dignis, scientiae plantarum Australiae contulit."
Comment: "The varietal epithet was published by Gardner as "hamiltonii" but he also states that the taxon was named in honour of two males with the surname Hamilton. The epithet is thus corrected here to hamiltoniorum in accordance with ICN Art. 60.8 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
