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

лектотип
Definition:
One of several syntypes, designated by any author after the original publication of a species name as the 'type specimen' for the taxonomic name. Designated only where there was no original holotype [Article 74 (ICodeZN)].

Един от няколко синтипа, определен от автора след оригиналната публикация на видовото име като "типов екземпляр" за таксономично име. Определен само когато няма оригинален холотип (Международен кодекс за зоологическа номенклатура).

лектотип


Definition from Lepidopterology:
One of several syntypes, designated by any author after the original publication of a species name as the 'type specimen' for the taxonomic name. Designated only where there was no original holotype [Article 74 (ICodeZN)].

Един от няколко синтипа, определен от автора след оригиналната публикация на видовото име като "типов екземпляр" за таксономично име. Определен само когато няма оригинален холотип (Международен кодекс за зоологическа номенклатура).

Example sentence(s):
  • Той възвръща лектотипа на род Agaricus (Вассер, 1980) без промяна на ранга, но с обем различен от този на Линей и Фриз. - www.botanica.hit.bg  
  • лектотип, с. Един от няколкото синтипа, означен след оригиналното публикуване на име от видовата група като "типов екземпляр" на таксона, носещ това име. - Международен кодекс -  

Explanation:
Много е трудно да се намерят примери на български език, тъй като този термин не е особено популярен сред българските зоолози.
