Twenty-one terms are listed, defined and some possible relationship to bacteriological nomenclature indicated. The terms discussed are archeculltype, cotype, holocultype, holotype, homocultype, graphocultype, lectotype, lectocultype, merocultype, metacultype, monocultype, nomenclatural type, paracultype, paratype, syncultype, syntype, thanotocultype, type, type culture, type specimen, and type strain.", }
