Synonym (zoology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Synonyms are "objective" if they unambiguously refer to the same taxon; this is the case if they refer to the same description or the same type specimen. Otherwise the synonyms are "subjective", meaning that there is room for debate: one researcher might consider the two names to refer to the same taxon, another might disagree. Objective synonyms are common at the level of genera, because two researchers may independently arrive at the conclusion that a species is sufficiently different from others in its genus that it needs to be given its own genus. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Junior_synonym   (351 words)

How animals are given scientific names A paratype has a junior status to the holotype so if at a later date they are found to be different species (which sometimes happens), the paratype is discarded as a type of the taxon and the holotype retained. Of a pair of subjective synonyms, a junior subjective synonym is the one that was described at the later date. As Camponotus longipes had no junior synonyms, B. Bolton in his catalogue of ants created a new name Camponotus etiolipes to replace this junior primary homonym and he takes the authorship of this new name. www.sgtgecko.com /scientific_names.htm   (2975 words)

Synonym Dictionary - Look Up and finder In scientific classification, synonyms are different scientific names that pertain to the same taxon, for example two name for the same species.

ICZN Code - Article 40   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) When the name of a type genus of a nominal family-group taxon is considered to be a junior synonym of the name of another nominal genus, the family-group name is not to be replaced on that account alone. If, however, a family-group name was replaced before 1961 because of the synonymy of the type genus, the substitute name is to be maintained if it is in prevailing usage. If the author and date are cited, a family-group name maintained under the provisions of Article 40.2.1 should be cited with its original author and date (see Recommendation 22A.2.2), followed by the date of its priority as determined by this Article; the date of priority should be enclosed in parentheses. www.iczn.org /iczn/includes/page.jsp?nfv=&article=40   (286 words)

Case 3171   (Site not responding.

Care to Go Spelunking? The Genus Liopropoma by Henry C.
