Status of the Wavey-rayed Lampmussel, Lampsilis fasciola, (Bivalvia: Unionidae), in Ontario and Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Wavy-rayed Lampmussel, Lampsilis fasciola, is a medium-sized freshwater mussel that inhabits substrates of gravel and sand in clear, hydrologically stable streams and small rivers.Its most probable fish hosts are the Smallmouth Bass (Micropterus dolomieu) and Largemouth Bass (Micropterus salmoides).It was once widely distributed (although uncommon) throughout the Ohio and Mississippi drainages and tributaries to the lower Great Lakes, but has declined significantly in recent years.It is listed as endangered in Illinois, threatened in Michigan and New York, and of special concern or interest in Indiana, Ohio and North Carolina.Its range in Canada included western Lake Erie, Lake St. Clair, and the Grand, Thames, Sydenham, Detroit, Ausable and Maitland rivers.Its numbers in Great Lakes waters have been reduced by the Zebra Mussel, Dreissena polymorpha, and populations in the Thames, Sydenham and Ausable rivers are disappearing or have been lost primarily as a result of agricultural impacts.The healthiest remaining populations in Ontario are found in a 60 km reach of the upper Grand River, but their future is uncertain because of fishing pressures on their host fish, increasing disturbance from recreational activities such as canoeing, and an anticipated decline in water quality accompanying the rapid rate of human population growth that is projected for the watershed.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.
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.
