Evidence for the existence of three species in the genus Archaeoattacus (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
27 specimens of the genus Arthaeoattacus Watson [in Packard], 1914 were DNA barcoded.This resulted in three clearly different clusters: the first is a purely Himalayan group (i.e., nominotypical Archaeoattacus edwardlsii (White, 1859)); the second is Ar.slaudingeri (Rothschild, 1895) from Sundaland including the Malay Peninsula; the third comprises samples from all other parts of the continental range of the first species excluding the Himalaya, but also including the Malay Peninsula.For this population the name Ar. malayanus (Kurosawa & Kishida, 1984), stat.n. is available.The relationships between these three species as inferred from DNA barcode analysis were unexpected, with Ar. slaudingeri being very close to Ar. malayanus, while Ar.edwardsii is more genetically distant in spite of the close similarity in morphology.Small, but evidently constant differences in male genitalia between the Himalayan Ar. edwardsii and the Indochinese Ar. malayanus support the distinction.The rooted mtDNA barcode tree, a distribution map, the types of the three species involved and several male genitalia are illustrated.

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.
