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."

The name Ichnocarpus frutescens has been variously attributed to (L.) R.Br., (L.) R.Br. in W.T.Aiton and (L.) W.T.Aiton. Brown described the genus Ichnocarpus in Mem. Wern. Nat. Hist. Soc 1: 61 (1811), with a single species, the Apocynum frutescens of Linnaeus. However he failed to actually make the new combination, only implying it. The combination was first made in Hortus Kewensis, 2nd edn. 2: 69 (1811). Although it is generally agreed that the new descriptions in this work were done by Dryander and Brown, there is no internal evidence of this (Art. 46.6), so the new combination must be ascribed to W.T.Aiton.
