[ 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.
