89 The naming of organisms (and plant communities)<br />

holoparalectotype: (zool., unoff.) a specimen from a series of<br />

paralectotypes (q.v.) that is of the same sex as the holotype.<br />

holoparatype: (zool., unoff.) a paratype (q.v.) of the same sex as the<br />

holotype.<br />

holopathotype: (prok., unoff.) the single strain designated by the original<br />

author as the type strain of a newly described pathovar.<br />

holoplastotype: (zool., unoff.) the cast of a holotype; a plastoholotype<br />

(q.v.).<br />

holoplesiotype: (zool., unoff.) a hypotype (q.v.) of the same sex as the<br />

holotype.<br />

holosyntype, [holosyntypus]: (phyt.) erroneously used to replace<br />

"holotypus" in the nomenclature of syntaxa.<br />

holotype, [holotypus]: (1) the one specimen (zool.: except in the case of a<br />

hapanotype, q.v.), or (bot.) illustration, or other single element (e.g.<br />

in phyt. a designated relevé) used by the author or designated by the<br />

author as the nomenclatural type (name-bearing type, type<br />

specimen) of a taxon or (phyt.) syntaxon or (zool.) nominal species<br />

or subspecies when the name (zool.: nominal taxon) was established<br />

(i.e. at the time of its original publication); see also nominifer. (2)<br />

(zool., obsol.) a genotype (q.v.)<br />

homeotype, [homeotypical]: see homotype.<br />

homocultype: a strain of a microorganism as far as possible identified with<br />

the archecultype (q.v.), but from another source or isolate.<br />

homodefinitional: (phyl.) based on the same phylogenetic definitions; see<br />

synonym.<br />

homoeotype: see homotype.<br />

homoiotype: see homotype.<br />

homologous: (1) (phyl.) of characters shared by virtue of inheritance from a<br />

common ancestor; a character or character state shared by two<br />

organisms (which may represent different species or clades) is said<br />

to be homologous if that character or character state was present in<br />

all of their ancestors back to and including their most recent<br />

common ancestor. (2) (prok., unoff.) in serology, of the antigen used
