Abstract
We recently established a new species, Homalogastra binucleata, with a morphological description and phylogenetic analyses based on SSU rRNA gene sequence data (Liu et al., 2020). Helmut Berger (Salzburg, Austria) commented that Homalogastra binucleata Liu et al., 2020 is a junior primary homonym of H. binucleata Song, 1993, the latter having been transferred to the genus Uronemita by Liu et al. (2016). According to article 57.2 of the ICZN (1999), the junior primary homonym, Homalogastra binucleata Liu et al., 2020, is permanently invalid. It is replaced by Homalogastra similis nom. nov.
