The current version of COL only has Orthops kalmii (Linnaeus, 1758).

The source that provides the name Codophila varia (Fabricius, 1787) to the Backbone has the species as accepted no as a synonym. So to me this looks like matching issue rather than a backbone issue.

Nevertheless, as Codophila varia (Fabricius, 1787) is not present on COL we are adding the name as accepted via xrelease.
