Bibliographic record
Abstract
Canadian species of the Zyras group of genera and review of the types from America north of Mexico (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae).-A review of the Canadian species of the Zyras Stephens group of genera is presented including new diagnoses, distribution maps, colour habitus images and genital illustrations.Colour habitus images, genital line illustrations and a key are provided for all valid species from America north of Mexico.Nearctic Zyras, formerly regarded in a broad sense (sensu lato), is treated here in a restricted sense, and a new classification is proposed to accommodate species from the Nearctic region.Five genera are recognized: Apalonia Casey (1 species), Myrmoecia Mulsant & Rey (2 species); Zyras (s.str.)Stephens (3 species); Pella Stephens (9 species); and Platyusa Casey (1 species) [reinstated] .Types of Z.flavicornis Solsky were not located and the species is considered as insertae sedis and is not included in descriptions or the key.Sixteen Zyras-related species are recognized in America north of Mexico, nine of which occur in Canada.Three species represent new Canadian records (NCR), four represent new provincial records (NPR) and five new state records (NSR).Four new synonymies are established, with the second name being valid: Apalonia divisa Casey = A. seticornis Casey; Myrmedonia cremastogastris Wasman = Pella loricata (Casey); Zyras (s.str.) pseudohaworthi Klimaszewski = Z.(s.str.) obliquus (Casey); and Myrmedonia schwarzi Wasman = Z.(s.str.) planifer (Casey).
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.
