In this paper we introduce the notion of structured phase-type representations. A structured representation corresponds to a class of phase-type representations having the same graph but free parameters. We define a generic property for such a representation. Then we prove that, generically, an irreducible structured representation of a given order corresponds to a distribution whose degree is equal to this order.
