Description of five new spiders from Canada (Araneae: Linyphiidae)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The number of undescribed Linyphiidae in North America is estimated to range from 200 to 500 species. To further taxonomic knowledge and fill the basic need for species identification, we describe five new species collected in bio-inventories: Agyneta sheffordiana new species, Oryphantes aliquantulus new species, Sisicus volutasilex new species, Tapinocyba cameroni new species and Tapinotorquis yamaskensis, new genus, new species. We provide detailed morphological descriptions of males and females, distribution data and habitat affinities for each species. These new species show different situations for their generic placement, from an obvious assignment to a species-rich genus to the necessity to create a new genus. In attempting to assign Tapinotorquis yamaskensis to a known genus, we discovered that the only North American record of Jacksonella falconeri (Jackson 1908) is a misidentification of Scirites pectinatus (Emerton 1911).
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
