Early–Middle Ordovician brachiopod diversification in the middle Yangtze region of South China
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The evolution of the Early–Middle Ordovician brachiopod diversity in the middle Yangtze region of South China has been analyzed. The brachiopods in this region originated in the early Tremadocian and radiated from the late Floian to the late Dapingian. The composition of rhynchonelliformean brachiopods underwent major changes in the late Floian, and endemic genera migrated from the upper Yangtze region to replace the cosmopolitan genera. A global comparison of the brachiopod diversity curves of South China, Laurentia, and Baltica reveals that (1) the processes and scales of brachiopod radiation in different paleocontinents were distinct; (2) unlike the global evolution of graptolites and chitinozoans, the correlation between brachiopod diversification and regional habitat change was more obvious, and the impact of habitat heterogeneity was reflected not only between plates but also in the interior of the plates, such as the closely connected middle and upper Yangtze regions of South China; and (3) geographical isolation was a key factor in the differential radiation on different paleocontinents.

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.
