Dryophthorinae weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) of the forest floor in Southeast Asia: illustrated overview of nominal Stromboscerini genera
Bibliographic record
Abstract
All 13 Recent genera currently assigned to the tribe Stromboscerini are studied and illustrated based mainly on the type specimens of the type species. Nominal monotypic genus Parasynommatus Voss, 1956 from New Guinea is herein transferred to Cossoninae incertae sedis. The genus Nephius is notably dissimilar to the rest of the tribe and perhaps renders it paraphyletic. Besides the monotypic type genus endemic to Madagascar, the tribe is distributed in a triangle delimited by Japan, Sri Lanka and northern Australia; two new tribe records from continental Africa (Uganda) and the Western Hemisphere (Cuba) are reported and illustrated. Assignment of both fossil monotypic genera to the tribe was done outside of the cladistic framework and remains questionable. Judging by external similarity, the likeliest closest relative of Stromboscerini (with or without Nephius and, perhaps, Stromboscerus) is the tribe Dryophthorini with three Recent genera.

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.
