Type species: Gymnodactylus gaudichaudii DUMÉRIL & BIBRON 1836: 413 is the type species of the genus Garthia DONOSO-BARROS & VANZOLINI in DONOSO-BARROS 1965: 1.

Characteristics: Homonota lizards lack the femoral pores typical of other South American Phyllodactylidae, and their infradigital lamellas are not expanded. 
EtymologyNamed after Charles Gaudichaud-Beaupré (1789 – 1854), a French botanist who traveled to South America and Australia.

The genus Garthia was named after Garth Leon Underwood (1919-2002), British herpetologist (obituary in Copeia 2003: 222-225).
