Additional field(s): Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-), Botany
English term or phrase: lectotype
Definition from University of Washington :
A specimen subsequently selected from the paratypes to serve as the holotype in the absence of the bona fide holotype. A single specimen subsequently selected from a cotype or syntype series; equivalent of a holotype.

Example sentence(s):
  • A lectotype may be chosen from the original illustrated specimens, taking the original description into full account. All specimens associated with the lectotype remain syntypes. Victoria University of Wellington
  • A lectotype and an allolectotype were selected to establish the taxonomic base for the genus. A ruling has been requested from the International Commission of Zoological Nomenclature on the disposition of the neotype. Journal of Nematology
  • The valid designation of a lectotype fixes the status of the specimen as the sole name-bearing type of that nominal taxon; no later designation of a lectotype has any validity. Int. Commission Zoological Nomenclature

lektotyp


Definition from Wikipedia:
určitý syntyp určený ako názvový typ druhu, alebo poddruhu až potom, čo bol určený nominálny druh alebo poddruh

Example sentence(s):
  • Ak autor mena druhu alebo vnútrodruhového taxónu neoznačil holotyp, ak sa holotyp stratil alebo bol zničený alebo ak sa ukázalo, že materiál ustanovený za typ patrí ku viac než jednému taxónu, možno ustanoviť (Čl. 7.10 a 7.11) ako náhradu lektotyp alebo, ak je to prípustné (Čl. 9.6), neotyp. Lektotyp má vždy prednosť pred neotypom okrem prípadu vymedzeného Čl. 9.11. Izotyp, ak existuje, sa musí vybrať za lektotyp. Ak neexistuje žiadny izotyp, potom sa musí lektotyp vybrať spomedzi syntypov, ak existujú. Ak neexistuje ani izotyp, ani syntyp, ani izosyntyp (duplikát syntypu) a ak sa nezachoval žiadny iný prvok pôvodného materiálu, možno vybrať neotyp. - sbs.sav.sk
