designating a photo as holotype?

[Doug Yanega]

>Ahem.... *neotype*, that is.

Not my day, is it? Like I said, pardon my confusion. I *do* know better,
but I'm in a forgetful mood today. I've even sat and discussed neotype
designation with icthyologists working on taxa lost in Berlin during the
war. I'd be tempted to blame the awful heat (8 PM and I'm dripping and
surrounded by mosquitoes), but my brain is just in low gear. Maybe a few
chicken hearts and a cold guarana will help.
