description: Cui and Huo, in Huo and Shu (1985) erected the genus Liella (type-species Liella luonanensis Yi, Cui and Huo, in Huo and Shu 1985, by original designation) for two species of bradoriid crustaceans (Crustacea, Bradoriida, Alutidae) from the Cambrian. Liella Cui and Huo and six other Chinese genera are morphologically close to Alutella Kobayashi and Kato and «their taxonomic status is in need of further investigation» (Hou et al. 2002). Not aware of the generic name established by Cui and Huo, Burckhardt et al. (2023) used the same name, Liella (type species, Paurocephala urenae Russell, 1946), for a new genus of psyllids (Insecta, Hemiptera, Psylloidea, Liviidae) with twelve extant tropical species (9 Afrotropical, 2 Neotropical, 1 Oriental). The purpose of this note is to replace the junior homonym.
Nomenclatural acts
According to Articles 52.4, 53.2 and 60.3 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1999), we propose Lilaoshia Burckhardt, Serbina and Malenovský, nom. nov. (LSID urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub: 619151EA-1149-4168- B0FB-A330354A6CFC) as the replacement name for Liella Burckhardt, Serbina and Malenovský, 2023, with the same type species, Paurocephala urenae Russell, 1946. Together with that species, also the following species-group names need to be recombined with the new genus-group name (the names are given in alphabetical order as in Burckhardt et al. 2023):

Etymology
The new generic name is dedicated to the late Professor Li Fasheng (1935–2021) for his monumental work on psyllids. The name is derived from Professor Li’s family name and the Mandarin Chinese noun Ɩlj [lǎoshī] = teacher. Gender feminine.
