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: A.D.Chapman, Austral. Pl. Name Index 2590 (1991) stated that Poiret did not validly make the combination Schoenus anceps and indicated that the combination was validly made by Roemer & Schultes (Syst. Veg. 16th edn, 2: 77 (1817)). However, under Article 33.1 of the 2006 (Vienna) edition of the ICBN, this name is considered to be validly published by Poiret and Roemer & Schultes' use of this name is considered to be a secondary reference. Chapman, op. cit. 2593 also records the name Schoenus elongatus (Nees) F.Muell. as "nom. illeg. non Kunth (1837)"; however, this name is invalid, as it is published in synonymy by Kunth, Enum. Pl. 2: 312 (1837) under Asterochaete elongata Kunth (now treated as Costularia elongata (Kunth) Kuk., from the Mascarene Islands).
