OK, if that was the question, then I agree with Laurent's answer. I read it as Mikhail intended to propose genus B himself. However, my comment still stands that whoever proposed genus B would have been wiser to validate genus A instead!

Is Mikhail's question really
understood as he meant it...?
Perhaps
I'm the one who is misreading it, but I don't think
the question
was about valid names, or the
intended introduction of any new generic
name. I would understand the question as:
What is the correct way to
cite the type species of a genus (here,
"genus B", type species fixed by
monotypy -- i.e., presumably simply
originally included in B as "B
somespecies"), when said type species was
established in combination with a generic name
("genus A") that was
unavailable...?
(I would go with "A somespecies
Originalauthor, Year", in agreement with
Rec. 67B. Even though "A" has (or
had) no nomenclatural standing.)

should be validated (which effectively means used as new
