Abstract
Males of the genus Antechinus (Dasyuromorphia) undergo dramatic behavioural, physical and physiological change that results in complete male mortality after the mating period. Occasionally, males in the wild survive longer than this immediate post-mating period, and post ‘die-off’ survivorship for a second year has also been documented in captivity. The present study sought to quantify changes in the physiology and behaviour of male A. flavipes and A. stuartii that survive through a second year of life. Males from both species never demonstrated spermatorrhoea in their second year, although secondary sexual characteristics and sexual behaviour were recovered in their second year. Thus, the seminiferous tubular collapse seen before the mating period in their first year of life is irreversible and complete, although the cycling of other sexual characteristics suggests that the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal pathways and function of the interstitial cells of the testes are retrievable.

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
