Nearctic Species of Metallus Forbes (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae): Biology and Distribution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Biological and distributional data are reviewed for the Nearctic species of Metallus Forbes (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae), and new data are presented for each. Larvae of all four mine leaves of rosaceous plants. The introduced Palearctic species M. lanceolatus (Thomson) feeds on Geum L. and is multivoltine. The three native species feed on Rubus L. and are univoltine or bivoltine. Metallus capitalis (Norton) is found on raspberries across southern Canada and the northern US and is bivoltine. Metallus rohweri MacGillivray occurs on blackberries and dewberries in eastern North America; it is univoltine in Massachusetts, but previous studies indicate that it is bivoltine in New York and farther south. Metallus ochreus Smith is now known from Virginia to New Hampshire and is strictly univoltine, with immature larvae overwintering in leaves of bristly dewberry (R. hispidus L.). Parasitoids reared from Metallus include species of Eulophidae, Braconidae, and Ichneumonidae.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
