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."

legitimate

Comment: Authorship of this name is here accepted as ascribed under ICN Art. 46.2 (Shenzhen Code, 2018), as Goldblatt & Barnard indicate separately on p. 306 that they had received the information in a "private communication" from de Vos. There is an earlier reference to the name as a "comb. nov. ms." by M.P. de Vos, J. S. African Bot. 36: 273 (1970), but the combination is not validly made there as no full and direct reference to the basionym is provided as required by ICN Art. 41.5 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
