Howdy folks,

I've been trying to figure out this holotype stuff and I think I get
it for species. But how the heck are holotypes chosen for a given
genus? It all seems too  much like apples and oranges to me.

Thanks,

Ellen

PS of course apples and oranges aren't the same genus, but you know
what I mean...
