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."

[tax. nov.]

Type: "Australia: Victoria: Wannon: Casterton, S on Casterton-Dartmoor Road, (37.713S, 141.309E), 26 Nov 2012, R.W. Jobson 1621 & R.P. Gibson (holo: NSW905026; iso: AD, MEL)."

Etymology: "The specific epithet refers to Dr William (Bill) R. Barker, former Chief Botanist of the State Herbarium of South Australia (AD), who has made significant contributions to Australian botany with studies of Australasian Scrophulariaceae and various other families. In the mid 1980's Dr. Barker provided the framework for the description of the current species by way of annotating the substantial AD collection of U. dichotoma, differentiating U. barkeri from the latter based mainly on the presence of 'medifixed' bracts."
