I think all conventional upright low brass designs can be called "saxhorns" after Adophe Sax.

"'Saxhorn' has remained in France the recognized generic for the upright [brass] instruments - though colloquially simply known simply as alto etc. - as made thenceforth by his former opponents." - Anthony Baines, "Brass Instruments", 1976, 1993.

Sadly, I don't have Christine Ammer's "Dictionary" anymore, but I believe she calls all the low upright brass "saxhorns".
