First observations of <em>Limosa fedoa</em> (Marbled Godwit) in Suriname, French Guiana, and Guyana
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Limosa fedoa, the Marbled Godwit, is a large shorebird that breeds in the grasslands of the northern United States and southern Canada, and winters along the coast of the United States, Mexico, and Central America, occasionally reaching the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of South America. During fieldwork along the coasts of Suriname, French Guiana, and Guyana in 2023–2025, small numbers of the species were observed, representing the first records for the three Guianas. These records expand geographical knowledge of the distribution of the species on the north coast of South America. Keywords French Guiana, Guyana, Limosa fedoa, Marbled Godwit, Suriname, Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network Resumen Primeras observaciones de Limosa fedoa (Aguja Canela) en Surinam, Guayana Francesa y Guyana • Limosa fedoa, conocida como Aguja Canela, es una ave playera de gran tamaño que se reproduce en los praderas del norte de los Estados Unidos y el sur de Canadá e inverna a lo largo de la costa de los Estados Unidos, México y América Central; alcanzando ocasionalmente las costas del Pacífico y del Atlántico de América del Sur. Durante trabajos de campo a lo largo de la costa de Surinam, Guayana Francesa y Guyana en 2023–2025, se observaron pequeños grupos de esta especie, lo que representa los primeros registros para las tres Guayanas. Estos registros amplían el conocimiento geográfico de la distribución de la especie en la costa norte de América del Sur.

Lors de travaux de terrain le long des côtes du Suriname, de la Guyane française et du Guyana en 2023–2025, l’espèce a été observée en petits nombres, ce qui représente les premières mentions pour les trois Guyanes. Ces signalements élargissent la connaissance géographique de la répartition de l’espèce sur les côtes nord de l’Amérique du Sud.

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.
