《国际动物命名法规》中的类型和相应规则对分类学至关重要，旨在提供命名的稳定性。在新模式化的情况下，需要特别勤奋的分类工作来保持连续性。在本文中，我们首先概述了典型化和新典型化的主要原则。然后，我们讨论了一个关键的情况下，使用当前的例子，从海洋浮游tintinnid属Tintinnopsis斯坦，1867年（泡状，纤毛）。这多样的和普遍存在的属是非单系的，但是它的修订和新的相关属的竖立目前被它的模式种的不确定的从属关系阻止。
Types and the corresponding rules in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature are crucial for taxonomy and are meant to provide nomenclatural stability. In the case of neotypification, especially diligent taxonomic work is required to retain continuity. In the present communication, we first outline the main principles of typification and neotypification. We then discuss a critical case, using a current example from the marine planktonic tintinnid genus Tintinnopsis Stein, 1867 (Alveolata, Ciliophora). This diverse and ubiquitous genus is nonmonophyletic, but its revision and the erection of new related genera is currently prevented by the uncertain affiliation of its type species.
