Abstract
The dragonflies (Odonata) of the large rivers of southern Québec, Canada, such as the Ottawa River and its tributary, the Petite Nation River, have not been collected, observed and studied as thoroughly as the Odonata of inland lakes, ponds, marshes, and streams. The author gives an account of his collection and studies of the odonate fauna of these two rivers between 1988 and 1999. Specimens consist mainly of larvae and larval skins Given that many threatened species of odonates (especially of the family Gomphidae) are associated with flowing water, the importance of marshalling conservation efforts is stressed. From the 26 species of gomphids recorded for the province of Québec, 22 have been found in the Outaouais region and 14 have been collected in the Ottawa and Petite Nation Rivers. Furthermore, a number of these gomphid species, while abundant in nature, are rarely seen in the adult stage. While many countries have just about lost their riverine species, there is still time to salvage what is left of the odonate populations in the Ottawa and Petite Nation Rivers. Systematic collecting of exuviae (cast-off cuticle of larvae) and larvae will enable dragonfly workers to assess the state of populations of the different taxa and promote measures to protect them from extinction

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
