Northeast Pacific record of the Cretaceous marine gastropod<i>Atira</i>and a review of its paleobiogeography
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Cretaceous record of the shallow-marine margaritine gastropod genus Atira Stewart, 1927 in the region extending from Vancouver Island, to northern Baja California is studied in detail for the first time. It is represented by A. popenoei n. sp. (late Turonian to earliest Campanian), A. ornatissima (Gabb, 1864) (latest Santonian to late Campanian or possibly early Maastrichtian), and A. inornata (Gabb, 1864) (“mid” Maastrichtian), which is the youngest known species of Atira . Atira originated in the tropical waters of the Tethys Sea in western Europe as early as the Early Cretaceous, possibly during the Hauterivian but was present there by the late Aptian to early Albian. The genus subsequently immigrated to other regions and became adapted to warm-temperate waters. By the late Turonian it had migrated westward to northern California. During the Campanian it reached south Sakhalin and in the earliest Maastrichtian it was present in southwest Japan. Although Atira ? nebrascensis (Meek and Hayden, 1856) has been questionably reported from Campanian to “mid” Maastrichtian deposits in the Wyoming area of the Western Interior Basin, this species does not belong in genus Atira .

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.
