A revision of the genus Epiphanis Eschscholtz, 1829 (Coleoptera: Eucnemidae: Melasinae: Epiphanini)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The cosmopolitan false click beetle genus, Epiphanis Eschscholtz (Coleoptera: Eucnemidae: Melasinae: Epiphanini) distributed largely across the Holarctic region is revised. Eleven new species are described: Epiphanis ainu (type locality: Shikoku, Japan), Epiphanis apache (Arizona, USA), Epiphanis basque (Spain) Epiphanis dobunni (England, British Isles, UK), Epiphanis hoh (Washington, USA), Epiphanis kwakiutl (British Columbia, Canada), Epiphanis menominee (Wisconsin, USA), Epiphanis navajo (New Mexico, USA), Epiphanis shoshone (Idaho, USA), Epiphanis ute (Utah, USA) and Epiphanis yayoi (Hokkaido, Japan). Epiphanis cristatus LeConte status restored and Prosopotropis devillei Abeille de Perrin are resurrected from synonymy with Epiphanis cornutus Eschscholtz. Furthermore, Fleutiaux (1920) had concluded that Prosopotropis devillei and Epiphanis cornutus are conspecific. After interpreting contents of the information provided by Abeille de Perrin (1898) and Fleutiaux (1920) and comparing the descriptions against the holotype of E. cornutus, it is concluded Abeille de Perrin’s species belongs to Epiphanis resulting in a new combination: Epiphanis devillei (Abeille de Perrin) from which the species is quite different from that of E. cornutus. Epiphanis cornutus, Epiphanis cristatus, Epiphanis devillei and Epiphanis tristis (Sharp) are redescribed. Holotype images for E. cornutus collected from Baranof Island near Sitka, Alaska from the Zoological Museum in Moscow (ZMUM) are included. A checklist for all species of Epiphanis present in the Holarctic region is provided. Each species in this study is diagnosed and illustrated. An identification key is provided for all known species of Epiphanis.
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.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
