Additional Information

This is a known limit with the 3.x version of the javascript api basemap gallery, which is documented here: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jssamples/widget_basemap.html "You can add additional basemaps to the gallery, however all basemaps added to the BasemapGallery must be in the same projection. If you are displaying basemaps from ArcGIS.com by setting then the additional basemaps must be in the Web Mercator projection."

Workaround

Use ArcGIS Server services instead of OGC services to create custom basemaps.
