[ Glycifohia gonada Mathews ]

Mathews (1929: 11) introduced Glycifohia gonada as a replacement name for Glyciphila notabilis Sharpe, 1899 , not Stigmatops notabilis Finsch, 1898 (now Lichmera notabilis (Finsch, 1898)) , and as such it would share the same type as Sharpe’s name, the type of which is in BMNH ( Warren and Harrison, 1971: 390). However, Lichmera notabilis (Finsch, 1898) and Gliciphila notabilis Sharpe, 1899 , are not homonyms, as pointed out by Salomonsen (1967: 431, fn.) and no replacement name is needed.
