Wikipedia
Phylotype
In taxonomy, a phylotype is an observed similarity used to classify a group of organisms by their phenetic relationship. This phenetic similarity, particularly in the case of asexual organisms, may reflect the evolutionary relationships. The term is rank-neutral, so that phylotypes can be described at different levels, such as species, class, 97% genetic similarity, or homology. The term is often used in microbiology, since the genomes of prokaryotes, which freely exchange genetic material, do not lend themselves to classification via Linnean taxonomy as easily as do many eukaryotes such as plant and animals.

Phylotype
A phylotype is a biological type that classifies an organism by its phylogenetic, that is evolutionary, relationship to other organisms. The term phylotype is taxon-neutral, thus one can choose the phylogenetic level at which the phylotype is described, e.g. species, class, 97% genetic similarity or homology. The term is used most often in microbiology since the genomes of prokaryotes do not lend to classification via Linnean taxonomy as easily as do many eukaryotes, including plant and animals. The phylotypic stage is allegedly a point in development where "all members in the taxon look essentially the same".
