Abstract
The current study was developed as part of Far North Biodiversity Project of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, conducted from 2010 to 2014. Out of 2903, we assigned 2735 specimens to 66 species. The remaining 168 specimens were identified to 17 genera only (i.e., unassociated forms). One new species Bryophaenocladius beresfordi sp. n. is described. Chernovskiia orbicus (Townes, 1945 Townes, H.K.

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
