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."

Flora of Australia

Text: "This name is listed in A.D.Chapman, Australian Flora and Fauna Series No. 12, Australian Plant Name Index A–C (1991) on the basis of Bentham’s inclusion of Australia in the distribution of the species, albeit with considerable doubt on his part. He had not seen the plant, described from Timor, on which he based his combination, and the flowers were, at that time, unknown. He included Australia on the basis of flowering specimens collected by A.Cunningham at Careening Bay, northern W.A., which he thought might represent flowering material of the species. I have not seen the Cunningham collection, but it is unlikely that it represents this taxon. Nielsen (1992) lists the species for New Guinea, as well as many other parts of Malesia and SE Asia."
