Abstract
Nylanderia (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) is a genus in the Prenolepis genus-group of formicine ants. They are distinguished from other formicine genera by the presence of six (rarely seven) mandibular teeth, paired macrosetae on the head and mesosoma, and a global distribution. Over 130 species have been described, 13 of which are from the Nearctic region, which includes Canada, the United States, and areas of northern and central Mexico. Two species are newly described from the Nearctic region: N. querna and N. trageri, both from the central United States. All castes of each taxon are accompanied by images and known distribution maps. Updated keys for both workers and males include these new taxa. Worker morphology is frequently convergent and male features have proven effective in distinguishing species, and special attention is focused on the male caste. It is not unlikely that further analysis of widespread species would indicate cryptic complexes. Discussion follows on discovery of new species, biogeography, and social parasitism in the clade.

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
