lectotype

GBK English to Greek Science Zoology
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 sentences:
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)

Λεκτότυπος

Definition from Malawi Cichlid:
Λεκτότυπος, σημαίνει ένα σύντυπο, σχεδιασμένο για ένα μόνο τύπο δείγματος που φέρει το όνομα του είδους.
Example sentences:
Ως αποκορύφωμα αυτής της διαφωνίας στην αναγνώριση των δειγμάτων στον τομέα Genea μπορεί να θεωρηθεί η εργασία της Sales (1992), στην οποία ισχυρίζεται ότι o λεκτότυπος* που συνόδευε την περιγραφή του Bromus sterilis L. δεν ανήκε σε εκείνο το είδος, αλλά στο B. diandrus ROTH. (Personal theses)
