No analysis of the extent to which the type locality criterion is being met can be undertaken without an inventory of species from the region; information on taxonomic changes owing to synonymy (merging of species names based on research) and removals from synonymy; and inclusion of new species and their type localities as a result of species discovery via new surveys or the outcomes of new methods, such as molecular systematics (e.g., Stevens et al., 2021). Locality verification will be particularly important for type localities with coordinates that are just outside the boundaries of the ASPAs (78 localities in 28 ASPAs, Appendix S4), to confirm that the species habitat is represented in the protected area.

Type localities representation in protected areas We overlaid the Antarctic type locality data onto spatial polygons of the current ASPA network to examine the number and distribution of localities captured in protected areas and to provide sites for new candidate ASPAs to conserve the type localities that remain unprotected.
