The TCS 2 Task Group will turn TCS into a form in which it can be maintained. The new version of TCS will be a vocabulary standard like Darwin Core and Audiovisual Core and will complement these other existing TDWG standards.
Element to which a scientific name is permanently attached.
Usage
A Nomenclatural Type requires a typifiedName and either a typeName or typeSpecimen.
Comments
A nomenclatural type fixes the usage of a name to the taxonomic group that contains the type. One or more Nomenclatural Types make up the typification of a Taxon Name. In Darwin Core, NomenclaturalType can be used as object with dwciri:typeStatus.
