Three new species of the genus <i>Favognathus</i> Luxton (Acari: Cryptognathidae) and re-description of <i>Cryptognathus lagena</i> Kramer from Iran
Bibliographic record
Abstract
AbstractThree new species of the genus Favognathus Luxton, 1973 are described from Iran, namely Favognathus esfahaniensis sp. nov., collected from soil under lichen at Najaf Abad, Esfahan Province; Favognathus alvandii sp. nov., from soil under plum, hawthorn and quince trees at Hamedan, Hamedan Province; and Favognathus guilanicus sp. nov., from soil under an unknown plant at Rasht, Guilan Province. The female and male of the type species Cryptognathus lagena Kramer, 1879 are re-described. Cryptognathus sternalis Krantz, 1958 is removed from synonymy with C. lagena after examination of the ornamentation and leg setation of type specimens, because trochanter I has 1 seta and tarsi I–IV 15(1ω)–12(1 ω)–9(1ω)–9(1ω) in C. lagena instead of trochanter I nude and tarsi I–IV 15(2ω)–12(2 ω)–10(1 ω)–10(1ω) in C. sternalis.http://zoobank.org/urn:LSID:zoobank.org:pub:D801D0D7-2B02-4D0C-91E7-0ED50C8B89D8Keywords: mossmicrophytophageslichenre-descriptionprosternal apron AcknowledgementsThis paper is a part of the PhD thesis of the second author that was financially supported by vice research of Bu–Ali Sina University. We are very grateful for the help of Dr Ron Ochoa [United State National Museum (USNM), United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARC), Beltsville Agricultural Research Center (BARC)], who sent leg setal counts and photographs of C. lagena and C. sternalis, and to Dr Qing-Hai Fan [Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF)-New Zealand] and Dr David Evans Walter (University of Alberta), who sorted the cryptognathid specimens in the Queensland Museum collection.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
