The empidoid flies (Diptera: Empidoidea, exclusive of Dolichopodidae) of the Russian Arctic islands and Svalbard Archipelago
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The empidoid flies of the Russian Arctic islands and Svalbard Archipelago are revised including families Empididae (4 genera, 32 species), Hybotidae (2 genera, 3 species) and Brachystomatidae (1 genus, 2 species). The following ten new species are described: Empididae-Empis septentrionalis Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Russia: Wrangel Island); Rhamphomyia (Dasyrhamphomyia) gorodkovi Shamshev, Sinclair Saigusa sp. nov. (Russia: Chukotka mainland, Wrangel Island, Taymyr, Yakutia; USA: Alaska); R. (D.) mallochi Shamshev, Sinclair Saigusa sp. nov. (Canada: Yukon; Russia: Chukotka mainland, Kolyuchin and Wrangel Islands; USA: Alaska); R. (Pararhamphomyia) subfilicauda Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Russia: Wrangel Island); R. (P.) submacrura Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Russia: Wrangel Island); R. (P.) subtenuiterfilata Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Russia: Wrangel Island, Yakutia); R. (P.) wrangeli Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Russia: Wrangel Island); R. sublongiseta Shamshev, Sinclair Saigusa sp. nov. (Canada: Yukon; Russia: Wrangel Island); one species of Rhamphomyia was retained as unnamed due to insufficient material; Hybotidae-Platypalpus septentrionalis Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Russia: Wrangel Island), P. subtectifrons Shamshev Sinclair sp. nov. (Canada: Northwest Territories, Yukon; Russia: Wrangel Island; USA: Alaska). For previously described species a short diagnosis and a habitus photo are provided to enable easier recognition. In addition, a key to the species of Rhamphomyia (Empididae) occurring on the Russia Arctic islands and Svalbard Archipelago is compiled. A lectotype is designated for Rhamphomyia armipes Sack, 1923. The male and the female of R. taimyrensis Frey and R. kaninensis Frey are described for the first time, respectively. Tachypeza sericeipalpis Frey is newly recorded from North America (Canada: Northwest Territories, Nunavut) and first illustration of the male terminalia is provided. Trichoclinocera lapponica (Ringdahl) is recorded for the first time from the territory of Russia.

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.
