Australian Moss Name Index (AusMoss)

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."

APC Comment: J.J.Engel & R.M.Schuster, Nova Hedwigia 39: 411 (1985), when making the new combination Chiloscyphus bowieanus, state that the type specimen is from Australia. However, F.Stephani (J. & Proc. Roy. Soc. New South Wales 48: 1178 (1914)) lists the type collection of the basionym Lophocolea bowieana as being from the "New Hebrides" [Vanuatu]. This taxon does not occur in Australia.
