Abstract
Lasioglossum (Dialictus) minckleyi sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 3197BF55-611C-4EE4-BC8B-4E133355826C Figs 3A, 64–66, 90J, 98B, 107B Diagnosis Females of Lasioglossum minckleyi sp. nov. can be recognized by the face short (length/width ratio ~0.8), frons and mesepisternum with coarse and crowded punctures (i =0 pd), clypeus with distinct apicolateral denticles, T1 anterior surface corarious, T2–4 with dark spiracular spots, metasomal terga lacking tomentum, and mesoscutum broad (length/width ratio usually ≤ 0.8). They are most similar to L. mesillense and L. imbriumbrae sp. nov. Both of these species usually have the frons and mesepisternum with finer or distinctly separated punctures at least in part, T1 anterior surface shiny, and metasomal terga with basolateral tomentum. Occasional specimens of L. mesillense lack some of these diagnostic characters, and are very difficult to distinguish from L. minckleyi sp. nov. Females of L. mesillense also have the mesoscutum longer (length/width ratio usually ± 0.84); this and the frons punctation seem to be the most reliable diagnostic characters. Males of L. minckleyi sp. nov. can be recognized by the face short (length/width ratio ~0.83) and covered in moderately dense tomentum below the ocelli, flagellomeres relatively short (F2 about 1.6 times as long as F1 and 1.25 times as long as broad), mesepisternum punctures dense (i <1 pd), metasomal terga lacking tomentum, T1–3 rims punctate basally, and clypeus apical margin and labrum usually orange. They are most similar to L. mesillense, L. austerum sp. nov., and L. imbriumbrae sp. nov. Males of L. mesillense have the flagellomeres relatively long (F2 about 2 times as long as F1 and 1.6 times as long as broad), mesepisternum more sparsely punctate (i= 1–2 pd), and metasomal terga sometimes with basolateral tomentum. Males of L. austerum sp. nov. have the face below ocelli covered in sparser tomentum and mesepisternum more sparsely punctate (i ≤ 1 pd). Males of L. imbriumbrae sp. nov. have T1–3 rims impunctate and clypeus apical margin and labrum reddish brown to black. Etymology The specific epithet minckleyi is a dedication to Robert L. Minckley (University of Rochester), who collected the vast majority of currently known specimens. An appropriate translation would be Minckley’s sweat bee.

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.
