Abstract
We investigated the seasonal variation and habitat preference of carabid beetles in mixed and hardwood stands, forest edge and meadow habitats at Mont St-Hilaire, southern Quebec, using pitfall traps from late May until the end of October 2007. We caught 1193 individuals belonging to 53 species of carabids. Among the 16 most abundant species, 5 were caught predominantly in early summer, 5 in mid-summer, and 5 showed a bimodal pattern of activity. Interestingly, there was no notable difference in terms of species composition between hardwood and mixed forests. However, ground beetle assemblages significantly differed between wet and mesic areas, and between forested and open or ecotonal areas. Fifteen indicator species were identified for different habitat types. Our results have implications for the conservation of carabid diversity, highlighting the importance of maintaining variation in canopy cover and dispersed hydric habitats in managed landscapes, but downplaying the importance of canopy species composition.

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
