Abstract
Abstract Throughout the world, mountains provide unique environments with attendant endemic species. In the otherwise subdued landscapes of the floristically diverse S outhwest W estern A ustralian F loristic R egion, the S tirling R ange provides the region's only distinctly montane environments. On the highest peaks of the R ange the characteristic heathland ( K wongan) of the region becomes a dense shrub thicket with many endemic species and is known as the E astern S tirling R ange M ontane H eath and T hicket. We assessed the conservation status of the M ontane H eath and T hicket using the IUCN Red list criteria for ecosystems. We found the ecosystem to be C ritically E ndangered based on its naturally limited geographic extent and area of occupancy in combination with the impacts of the plant pathogen P hytophthora cinnamomi . Historical sources and long‐term monitoring were critical to our assessment of this ecosystem highlighting their importance in detecting and understanding likely causes of change. The ecosystem is predicted to decline further in the absence of intensive management due to current threatening processes as well as the potential future impacts of climate change. The M ontane H eath and T hicket, while substantially modified still retains areas with highly significant conservation values and these pose many challenges for management. Continued management of P . cinnamomi through phosphite application and management of fire return intervals will be critical to conserve the remaining areas of the thicket where sensitive plant species occur together with an ex situ conservation program including ongoing seed collection and translocation for the most threatened species.

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
