Gmelin vs Piesch & Leske
In June 2018 Larent Raty posted some comments on the scientific name to the Birdforum blog: "The forgotten authorship of Sylvia melanocephala ("Gmelin") -- and a few other names" https://www.birdforum.net/threads/the-forgotten-authorship-of-sylvia-melanocephala-gmelin-and-a-few-other-names.362858/ See also the two entries for Motacilla melanocephala in the Richmond index:
 * Gmelin
 * Piesch & Leske

The above predates the 2020 note by Jiří Mlíkovský that includes the text "It seems that no previous ornithologist has noticed this case."
