Bibliographic record
Abstract
Alloblackburneus cavidomus (Brown, 1927) new combination (Fig. 11-15) Aphodius cavidomus Brown, 1927: 167. Aphodius (Blackburneus) cavidomus; Dellacasa 1988: 333. Blackburneus cavidomus; Gordonand Skelley 2007: 355. Typelocality. Otoe Pasture, Noble Co., Oklahoma [U.S.A.]. Type repository. Canadian National Collection, Ottawa (type not examined). Redescription. Length 3.0- 4.5 mm; oblong, convex, shiny, glabrous. Reddish yellow to pale brownish red; elytral suture and sometimes head and pronotum slightly darker; legs brownish red; antennal club testaceous. Head with epistome moderatelyconvex on disc, finely subregularly punctured throughout; punctation somewhat sparser on disc; clypeus sinuate at middle, obtusely round at sides, distinctly bordered, edge somewhat upturned, glabrous; genae round, almost imperceptibly bristled, not protruding from the eyes; frontal suture faintly impressed; front somewhat more finely sparsely punctured than epistome. Pronotum moderately transverse, very convex, dually punctured; large punctures, five to six times larger than small, dense and coarse on sides, lacking on disc; small sparse punctures regularly scattered throughout, very fine, often indistinct, on disc; lateral margins feebly arcuate, thinly bordered, edge glabrous; hind angles obtusely round; base faintly bisinuate, thinly bordered. Scutellum flat, with few very fine punctures. Elytra almost subparallel-sided, with epipleural carina subdentiform at shoul- der, finely striate; striae rather closely punctured, feebly crenulate; intervals nearly flat, finely punctured, subapically microreticulate, alutaceous;. Hind tibiae superior apical spur regularly acuminate, shorter than first tarsal segment; latter as long as following three segments combined. Male: head and pronotum somewhat more superficially and less densely punctured; latter not narrowed frontwardly; aedeagus Fig. 14-15. Female: head and pronotum somewhat more coarsely and more densely punctured. Material examined. USA, Oklahoma: Comanche Co., Wichita Mts. Refuge, 5-7.VI.1979, leg. S. & J. Peck (shortgrass prairie, prairie dog burrows) (1 ex., DCGI); Texas: Lubbock Co., 3 mi. W New Deal, 12.V.1977, leg. D. E. Foster & D. D. Ralstom (ex burrow of Cynomys ludovicianus) (1 ex., DCGI). Distribution. U.S.A. (Oklahoma, Utah, Texas). Bionomics. Spring, Summer and early Autumn species known to occur in burrows of the black tailed prairie dog (Cynomys ludovicianus (Ord)) from May to September.

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.
