Protonym - LIAS Glossary

This is a test version of the LIAS Glossary. Many definitions presented here are still in need of revision! Criticism as well as collaboration is welcome!

protonym (noun, pl. protonyms; nomenclature term) – a name effectively but not validly published after the starting point for a taxonomic group; the protonym is thus neither a devalidated nor a validly published name that might, however, later be taken up and then validly published.
