Abstract Me.thy.li.cor.pus'cu.lum. N.L. neut. n. methylum , the methyl residue; L. neut. n. corpusculum , a small body; N.L. neut. n. Methylicorpusculum , a methyl (residue)‐using small body. The genus Methylicorpusculum accommodates aerobic obligate methane‐oxidizing bacteria that are capable of growing at pH of 6.5–8.4 (optimum 8.0). At present, this genus comprises one characterized representative. A draft genome sequence of the type strain ( M. oleiharenae XLMV4 T ) is available. Cells are beige to yellow‐pigmented Gram‐negative coccobacilli and are motile via a single polar flagellum. Growth occurs only on methane (CH 4 ) and methanol (CH 3 OH). Cells possess particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO), and carbon is assimilated via the ribulose monophosphate pathway (RuMP). An extensive intracytoplasmic membrane system similar in arrangement to that of other gammaproteobacterial (Type I) methanotrophs is present. The genus Methylicorpusculum is phylogenetically associated with the class Gammaproteobacteria , family Methylococcaceae , and includes a single species, Methylicorpusculum oleiharenae . The only known habitat for these bacteria is an oil sands tailings pond in Northern Alberta, Canada. DNA G + C content (mol%) : 46.7 (genome analysis). Type species : Methylicorpusculum oleiharenae Saidi‐Mehrabad et al. 2020 VP . Taxonomic and Nomenclature Notes According to the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN), the taxonomic status of the genus Methylicorpusculum is: correct name (last update, February 2025) * . LPSN classification: Bacteria / Pseudomonadati / Pseudomonadota / Gammaproteobacteria / Methylococcales / Methylococcaceae / Methylicorpusculum The genus Methylicorpusculum can also be recovered in the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB) as g__Methylicorpusculum (version v220) ** . GTDB classification: d__Bacteria / p__Pseudomonadota / c__Gammaproteobacteria / o__Methylococcales / f__Methylomonadaceae / g__Methylicorpusculum * Meier‐Kolthoff et al. ( 2022 ).

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
