Abstract
Thirty-eight samples of the textured lungwort lichen, Lobaria scrobiculata, were collected from tree trunks in two sites on the Avalon Peninsula of the Island of Newfoundland, Canada. These samples yielded 340 tardigrade specimens the most numerous species being Hysibius convergens, Claxtonia merokensis ,Echiniscus wendti, Macrobiotus cf.hufelandi and Milnesium sp. Several species reckoned to be rare on the island as a result of previous studies of ground growing lichens and mosses were exceptionally common in Lobari ascrobiculata demonstrating the importance of tree trunks as an environment supporting tardigrades. Rotifers and nematodes were also recovered but were not as numerous as tardigrades. L. scrobiculata is often co-located with the rare boreal felt lichen Erioderma pedicellatum, also a foliose lichen, and it is hoped that the information from this present study can also be applied in the conservation of this rare lichen.

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
