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."

Showing Goodenia tenella

Goodeniaceae R.Br.

Goodenia tenella Andrews

, nom. illeg., nom. superfl.

Andrews, H.C. (1807), The Botanist's Repository for New, and Rare Plants 7(98)

t. 466

[tax. nov.]

Type: "...as communicated to the author by the Comtesse de Vandes, in whose choice collection near Bayswater it flowered for the first time."

taxonomic synonym:

Velleia trinervis Labill.

legitimate

Text: "Its general exterior approaches very near a generic division of Goodenia called Velleia, and is by Labillardiere figured under the title of Velleia trinervis."
Comment: nom. illeg., nom. superfl., as the epithet trinervis was available in Goodenia in 1807 and thus ought to have been adopted by Andrews. Stafleu & Cowan, Tax. Lit. ed. 2, 1 (1976) 51 give the author as "probably ... George Jackson", but as there is no such indication in the work itself, Andrews has been accepted here as the author.
