Abstract
The genus Melchus Lacordaire is redescribed to accommodate Melchus leprosus Lacordaire and four new species as follows: M. gomezi Anderson new species (type locality: Costa Rica, Puntarenas, Las Cruces Biological Station), M. jolyi Anderson new species (type locality: Venezuela, Aragua, Rancho Grande Biological Station), M. onorei Anderson new species (type locality: Ecuador, Napo, Santo Domingo de los Colorados), and M. perplexus Anderson new species (type locality: Bolivia, La Paz, San Jose). The genus Daisya Anderson new genus is described to accommodate Daisya umbratilis (Lacordaire) new combination (not examined) and three new species as follows: D. obriani Anderson new species (type locality: Costa Rica, Puntarenas, Reserva Forestal Golfo Dulce), D. andersonae Anderson new species (type locality: Costa Rica, Puntarenas, Estacion Biologia Las Cruces), and D. huetheri Anderson new species (type locality: Panama, Continental Divide Trail [near La Fortuna]). Only 17 specimens of these two genera are known. Adults were collected in mid-elevation moist tropical forest as well as lowland rain forest but virtually no other information is available about natural history. A key to the seven genera of Neotropical Litosomini is included.

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
