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."

Text: "The accepted name for this species has unfortunately flipped backwards and forwards between 'linifolia' and 'lavandulifolia'. The correct epithet is undoubtedly 'lavandulifolia' and the reasons for this were clearly explained by Smith (1991) ..."
Text: "It was first collected in Australia in 1912. It is now commonly naturalised in coastal areas of Queensland from Cairns to Gin Gin, and with two old records from Palmwoods."
