jQuery :nth-last-of-type() Selector
## Definition and Usage
The :nth-last-of-type(n) selector selects all elements that are the nth child, relative to their parent, of the same type (tag name).
**Note:** n accepts integers (1, 2, 3, ...), keywords (odd, even), and formulas (2n+1, 2n, ...).
Tip: Use :nth-last-of-type(1) to select all elements that are the last child, relative to their parent, of the same type!
