A list of bee species (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) recorded from three municipalities in the Niagara region of Ontario, including a new record of <i>Lasioglossum furunculum</i> Gibbs (Halictidae) in Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We carried out an extensive survey of bee species in the Niagara Region of Ontario, Canada, by sampling various sites within three municipalities from 2003 to 2013. The municipalities were St. Catharines, Port Colborne, and Wainfleet. Sampling mainly consisted of pan-trapping, but also included sweeping through vegetation and targeted collection from flowers. In the longest ongoing survey of a bee community to date in Canada, we collected 51,842 bee specimens comprising nearly 150 valid species, of which 30 were not previously recorded for the region. We also present the first record of the rare sweat bee species Lasioglossum furunculum Gibbs (Hymenoptera: Halictidae) in Canada, which was previously known only from Massachusetts, United States of America.

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.
