Abstract
The geographic distribution and relative abundance of 2 adventive Asian parasitoids (Ganaspis kimorum Buffington and Leptopilina japonica Novković & Kimura) (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) of spotted-wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in Washington state were surveyed from 2020 to 2024 using bait or lure traps. G. kimorum and L. japonica were first detected in 2020 to 2021 in western Washington. However, their distribution in eastern Washington, which produces the majority Washington's vulnerable specialty crops, was of interest for establishing a baseline for future biological control efforts. A clear picture emerged regarding the current distribution of the 2 Asian species, and a cosmopolitan figitid, Leptopilina heterotoma (Thompson), which attacks other Drosophila spp. Adventive populations of G. kimorum were only found west of the Cascade Mountains; the few specimens recovered in eastern Washington were found near release sites. Conversely, L. heterotoma was rarely detected using jar traps in western Washington, but was the most abundant of the figitid species found in eastern Washington. L. japonica was common and abundant in both regions, but more so in western Washington. The unaided establishment of L. japonica in eastern Washington may presage its future impact as a biological control agent in this region.

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
