It will most definitely give you styles that match reasonably closely (note that you cannot just paste sample references - you need to adjust the _existing_ citations - the ones described by the data on the left - to match the citation you want.
You can also look through other "phyllo..." styles manually and see if there's a close fit.
I searched for the two author journal article and the closest was Limnology and Oceanography. The only difference in the citation style bibliography for Phyllomedusa is that the volume number and colon is italicized, not in bold. The inline citation is a perfect match.
I searched for a book chapter and the closest was Limnology and Oceanography. The inline style was a perfect match. The differences in the bibliography style was in Phyllomedusa the page numbers are designated as "Pp." as compared to "p." in Limnology and Oceanography. There is a period at the end of the chapter title in Phyllomedusa vs. a comma in Limnology and Oceanography. The editor label in Phyllomedusa uses parentheses e.g. "(eds.)" vs brackets in Limnology and Oceanography e.g. "[eds.]". The title of the book is in italics in Phyllomedusa where in Limnology and Oceanography is it not italicized. Also, the city of publication is included in Phyllomedusa (after the title of the book and ends with a period e.g. "New York.") where it is absent in Limnology and Oceanography.
I searched for a book and the closest match was Antarctic Science. The inline style was a perfect match. There were several differences in the bibliography style. Any additional authors beyond the first author have their initial before their last name with a space between their first and middle initial e.g. "A. W. Smith". The last author has an "and" before their first initial not "&". The place of publication and publisher are separated with a period, not a colon, e.g. "New York. Oxford University Press." Also, the publisher has a period at the end before the page numbers are listed e.g. "Oxford University Press. 438 pp."
Any problems please let us know.
