A samototype refers to a type of specimen that serves as a standard for the identification of a species, particularly in Paleontology and taxonomy. Unlike holotypes, which are single type specimens, samototypes may represent multiple individuals or variations within a species. They are used to provide additional context and support for the classification and description of organisms. However, the term "samototype" is not widely recognized in the scientific community, and its usage may vary.
