[Taxacom] New species from warm houses

[Angelo Bolzern]

Hi there,

 

If you collect specimens from an undescribed species in a warm house, what
would you do? The code states (Art. 76.1.1.) that the type locality is where
the artificial dislocated specimen comes from... but what if that is
unknown?

 

Possibilities:

-      not describe the new species

-      describe it not formally (species 1, species 2)

-      describe it but with unknown type locality.

 

Helpful suggestions are welcome.

 

Regards,

 

Angelo
