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."

Originally named by Scheele for the Italian botanist Paolo Boccone (1633–1704), the widely-used past spelling of the substantive epithet, "bocconi" or "bocconii" is to be corrected to "bocconei" in accordance with ICBN Art. 60.1, 60.11 and Ex. 11, Regnum Veg. vol.131 (2000). See L.G.Adams et al., Austral. Syst. Bot. 21: 263 (2008) for a detailed discussion of the orthography of this epithet.
