Good question.
Maybe their equivalent to Summon Myrmidon is Summon Small Gargoyle, bringing one of those weakling Legacy ITL PC gargoyles instead of a proper ST 20 gargoyle like the full Summon Gargoyle spell. Or maybe it summons an even weaker gargoyle than the 32-point gargoyle, since even those are actually better than Myrmidons.
I think it's not that they learn the exact same spells and get different things.
It's that they have different spells available, and they (and/or the GM thinking about their wizards' history in his campaign setting) research different summon spells that they could use.
Maybe no one's ever researched any other spells for gargoyle wizards other than Summon Gargoyle, since gargoyles almost never exceed IQ 10.
Or maybe they have Summon Stone Beetle and possibly other stony creatures that are not in ITL.
Apparently higher-IQ spells can be researched to summon other types of creatures, explaining Summon Gargoyle and Summon Dragon for mammals... or maybe in some campaigns those would not be castable by mammals. Maybe there could be a Summon Myrmidon for gargoyle wizards, but it'd be at the same IQ level that Summon Gargoyle is for humans... so probably no one would ever research that, since gargoyles pretty much never get enough IQ to cast it.
