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."

Text: "Belcher (1996: 121) cites the type of the name Senecio pectinatus var . major as “TYPUS: Victoria, Cobboras Mountains, [1854], F. Muell. HOLOTYPUS: MEL 666920; ISOTYPI: Cobboras Mountains, 6000 ft, F. Muell., MEL 666921 ex Herb. Sond er; K (two specimens and two labels on one sheet, ex Herb. [W.J.] Hook.).” This is here treated as effective lectotypification by Belcher in accordance with ICN Art. 7.11 (Shenzhen Code, Turland & al., 2018). As Belcher’s citation meets the relevant requirements of ICN Art. 7.11, his use of the term “holotypus” is correctable under ICN Art. 9.10."
