DISTRIBUTION. — Indian Ocean (South Africa to the Andaman Sea) and the western Pacific Ocean (Philippine Islands to New Caledonia) (Fig. 11). Depth: 37-411 m. DIAGNOSIS. — Dorsal surface of gastric region of carapace lacking spine (Fig. 10). Gastric region slender, length 0.35-0.45 of carapace length. Supraocular spines slightly shorter or nearly equal than ocular peduncles. Hepatic swellings not topped by tubercle or spine. Merus of each third maxilliped without tubercle or spine on ventral surface. Abdomen of adult males with all somites distinct; middorsal protuberance on somite 1, acute spine on somite 2. Abdomen of adult females with middorsal protuberance on somite 1, acute spine on each somite 2, 3 (Fig. 10); somites 4-6 broad and fused with proximal spines laterally near articulation with somite 3. Propodus of each last pair of walking appendage (P5) equal or longer than carpus; dactylus of P5 trailing, not forming subchela; distal portion of propodus without spinules (see Williams 1982: fig. 7b, c). Colour: Carapace “reddish with longitudinal stripes of dark red, the ocular peduncles, chelipeds and legs are closely cross-banded with red, and the retina of the eyes is purplish black” (Alcock 1901: 72). REMARKS Latreillia pennifera is close to L. metanesa in its general morphology but easily distinguished by its last pair of pereopods (P5), each having a non-toothed, slender, and trailing dactylus that does not form a subchela (see Williams 1982: fig. 7b, c). In contrast, L. metanesa has a toothed dactylus that forms a subchela against a spined propodus (Fig. 6). Specimens of L. pennifera that lack the P5 are best separated by the absence of a tubercle, tooth, or acute spine on the meri of the third maxillipeds. In L. metanesa there is a tubercle (which varies from a slightly raised area to a high, obtuse tubercle) on the meri. Castro P. et al. Other characters that are not always reliable are supraocular spines shorter than the ocular peduncles, absence of a dorsal spine in juveniles and small adults, and a spine or small tubercle on each hepatic swelling. The structure of the male first pleopods is not a reliable character. Although shown as short and with straight borders by Williams (1982: fig. 3e), it can be identical to that of L. metanesa: more slender and slightly curved (Williams 1982: fig. 3d), or long and curved (Williams 1982: fig. 3c, as “near L. manningi ”). No juvenile specimens of L. pennifera were identified during this investigation so it can be speculated that, if a dorsal spine is present, juveniles may be undistinguishable from those of L. metanesa. L. pennifera has been recorded from slightly shallower depths (37-411 m) than in the other Indowest Pacific species of Latreillia with which it may occur sympatrically: L. metanesa (60-650 m) and L. valida (30-731 m). Size Maximum size: ♂ cl 10.4 mm, ♀ cl 12.3 mm (Williams 1982).

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.
