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."

Mairiana appressa J.W.Green

orth. var.

Wilson, Fl. Austral. 4: 212 (1984) stated that the name K. appressa Benth. was illegitimate because Bentham had included as a syntype one of the two specimens previously cited by Mueller under K. tomentosa (1859). Wilson's interpretation was based on the ICBN (1983). However, according to the present Code (2000) this interpretation is incorrect and Bentham's name is legitimate. The citation should therefore be Maireana appressa (Benth.) Paul G. Wilson (1975). Barker et al. (2005) included the name Kochia tomentosa Benth. in synonymy with Maireana appressa. This is in error, and the name K. tomentosa Benth. does not exist.
