Ling Pug Eupithecia goossensiata 70.1791 not on list

I know there has been a lot of back and forth with Wormwood Pug Eupithecia absinthiata and Ling Pug Eupithecia goossensiata (previously Eupithecia absinthiata form goossensiata).
My current understanding is that these are now treated as separate species in the 2nd edition of A checklist of the Lepidoptera of the British Isles. (Agassiz, Beavan & Heckford, 2024).
Is it possible to get this added to the list please?
