Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bradysia luctifica (Skuse, 1888) comb. n. (Fig. 15 A‒C) Sciara luctifica Skuse, 1888 [Skuse (1888): 680 ‒681]. Type locality. Australia. S A., Gawler. Lectotype (here designated): Male. Slide bears original label data verbatim ‘ S. luctifica / Ƌ (ink) TYPE./ F. A. A. Skuse’ (print), ‘ S. Aust. ’ (ink). Mounted in Canada balsam Dec. 2015. (ANIC; Slide No. 030-1). Paralectotype. Male, same data (without hypopygium) (ANIC; Slide No. 030-2). Remarks. Original description states “ Hab.—Gawler, South Australia.” Preservation. Flagellomeres missing, thorax damaged, hypopygium and wing in good condition. = Bradysia planistylata Vilkamaa, Hippa & Mohrig, 2012 syn. n. [Vilkamaa et al. (2012c): 38 ‒39, fig. 10 A‒D; Mohrig (2016): 28, fig. 32 a‒c; plate III, fig. 32]. Type locality. New Caledonia. Holotype: Bradysia planistylata Vilkamaa, Hippa & Mohrig, 2012, male. Additional description. Male. Head. Brown. Eye bridge 3 facets wide. Antenna lost; palpus 3-segmented, basal segment with sensory pit and 4‒5 bristles. Thorax. Brown, scutum with a few longer prescutellar and lateral bristles; postpronotum bare. Wings brownish; R1 = 3/4 R; R5 with dorsal macrotrichia only; C = 2/3 w; y = x, without macrotrichia; posterior veins distinct, without macrotrichia. Haltere short, brownish. Legs brownish; fore tibia with a comb of somewhat wavy brown bristles; spurs of middle and hind tibia equal in size, longer than the width of tibia apex; claws without teeth. Abdomen. Brown, with rather short hairs. Hypopygium brown, with broad open ventral base, strongly contoured, without lobe or patch of bristles; gonocoxite with short hairs on the inner ventral membrane, the ventral inner margin with rather long bristles; gonostylus elongate, without apical tooth, flattened on the inner side and with shovel-like apex, densely covered with short spine-like bristles; tegmen apically rounded, with large area of teeth and a long ventral parameral apodeme; aedeagus rather long. Body length: approximately 4.0 mm. Comments. This species is characterized by the flattened inner side of the gonostylus with a flat shovel-like apex, covered densely with short spine-like bristles. It is identical to B. planistylata from New Caledonia in all details. It is reported from Papua New Guinea as well (Mohrig 2016). Distribution. Australia (South Australia), New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea.

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.
