Figure 1 from: Wheeler Q, Bourgoin T, Coddington J, Gostony T, Hamilton A, Larimer R, Polaszek A, Schauff M, Solis A (2012) Nomenclatural benchmarking: the roles of digital typification and telemicroscopy. ZooKeys 209: 193-202. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.209.3486

Figure 1 - Three-part strategy to (a) avoid further growth of backlog by digitizing all new species, (b) rapidly create 3D e-types for all existing species, and (c) open access to types for experts to facilitate their nomenclatural decision-making while simultaneously expanding and enhancing comprehensiveness of digital images of informative characters of type specimens. All images should be available through an open access public "Global e-Type Archive," whether managed by ZooBank or a community-level organization.
