Upper Homerian (upper Wenlock, Silurian) graptolites from arctic Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An extraordinarily well-preserved upper Homerian (uppermost Wenlock) post-extinction (post- lundgreni Event) graptolite fauna is described from Arctic Canada. The fauna of dendroids, retiolitids and monograptids, predominantly of uncompressed and isolated material, demonstrates almost totally new morphological features in comparison with the pre-extinction fauna. The two species of the lowest post-extinction fauna are followed by a rapid proliferation in the middle part of the interval, resulting in the maximum diversity, 21 species, for the entire upper Homerian. The upper Homerian is divided into three biostratigraphic units: the lower nassadubius Biozone, middle praedeubeli-deubeli Biozone, and the upper ludensis Biozone. The total fauna consists of ten species of monograptids and 11 species of retiolitids; of the latter group, three ( Baculograptus, Papiliograptus and Doliograptus ) are new genera, and six ( B. batesi, P. papilio, P. ? petilus, D. latus, Doliograptus sp. A, and Spinograptus praerobustus ) are new species. Among the recognized species of monograptids, only Colonograptus schedidoneus and Lobograptus ? cornuatus are confined to the Arctic, while five species of retiolitids ( B. batesi, P. ? petilus, D. latus, Doliograptus sp. A, and Spinograptus praerobustus ) appear to be endemic.

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.
