Abstract
Abstract Leptoglossus occidentalis H eidemann ( H eteroptera: C oreidae) is a N orth A merican conifer seed pest that was accidentally introduced to E urope. In the M editerranean area, it threatens the production of P inus pinea L innaeus seeds. The egg‐parasitoid G ryon pennsylvanicum ( A shmead) ( H ymenoptera: P latygastridae), the main natural enemy in the native range of L . occidentalis , was imported from B ritish C olumbia to I taly. Pre‐release risk assessments were made under quarantine conditions by no‐choice tests conducted with naïve and experienced G . pennsylvanicum offering single eggs of target and non‐target species for varying exposure times (1, 4, 48 h). G . pennsylvanicum successfully parasitized from 75% to 100% of the target host eggs. Only one female specimen of the egg‐parasitoid emerged from a non‐target egg ( G onocerus juniperi H errich‐ S chaeffer, H eteroptera: C oreidae). Two dead female specimens were found, one inside an egg of C oreus marginatus ( L innaeus) ( H eteroptera: C oreidae) and one in an egg of C amptopus lateralis ( G ermar) ( H eteroptera: A lydidae). All three cases occurred at the longest oviposition exposure time. Results obtained with this conservative approach suggest that the risk to non‐target species of releasing G . pennsylvanicum in Italy is low.

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 it
