Basionym/Protologue -- One more question

[Richard Pyle]

I've got one last question related to my ealier inquiries about Basionyms &
Protologues:

Is it true that the Basionym is always derived from the Protologue?  Or, is
it possible that the Basionym is attributed to one Reference/Author, while
the Protologue is contained within another?

Thanks once again....

Aloha,
Rich
