Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A wide range of helminths has been recorded from murres Uria spp. (Threlfall 1971, reviewed by Hoberg 1984a, Muzaffar & Jones 2004). Of the cyclophyllidean cestodes that parasitize murres, the genus Alcataenia Spasskaya 1971 (Dilepididae) is represented by ten species, eight of which are restricted and specific to the auks; the other two species occur in gulls (Laridae). The intermediate hosts of Alcataenia are euphausiid crustaceans such as species of Thysanoessa (Shimazu 1975), which also form an important dietary component of breeding and wintering murres, particularly Thickbilled Murres Uria lomvia (Gaston & Noble 1985, Birkhead & Nettleship 1987, Elliot et al. 1990, Rowe et al. 2000, Ainley et al. 2002). Alcataenia armillaris Rudolphi 1810 and A. meinertzhageni Baer 1956 are restricted to the murres and have been recorded from different locations in the Holarctic (Threlfall 1971; Hoberg 1984a, 1986). Alcataenia longicervica Hoberg 1984 was described from murres in the North Pacific basin and has been regarded as endemic to the region (Hoberg 1986) because relatively extensive surveys of murres from the North Atlantic and Arctic basin have previously failed to find the species (e.g. Markov 1937, 1942, Belopolskaya 1952, Threlfall 1971, Galkin et al. 1994).

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
