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: "Although recorded as occurring in Vic. by A.J.Ewart (Vict. Naturalist 24: 191, 1908) and in Tas. by B.K.Simon (Techn. Bull Bot. Branch Dept. Prim. Industr. Queensland 3: 18, 1978) this species is not considered to be naturalised in Australia. The C.Walter specimen from Vic. collected in 1900 and held in MEL has limited provenance information and may well represent a cultivated plant. There do not appear to be any specimens from Tas., and this record may have been an error for the early Vic. collection."
