I assume that in practice there will only be lots of such cases
(specific names with the same spelling combined with generic names
with the same spelling) in quite unrelated groups (the workers on
such groups being unaware of each other's efforts), but there
appears to be no such requirement:
"57.8.1. Homonymy between identical species-group names in
combination (originally or subsequently) with homonymous
generic names having the same spelling but established for
different nominal genera [Art. 53.2] is to be disregarded."
