Diagnosis. Specimens may be distinguished by: males spur truncated (Fig. 118), procursus short (Fig. 122), MEP of the epigynum lacking ridges (Fig. 123), PEP projection wide with the dmPEP not touching (Fig. 124), carapace length ≥ 9 mm. PLATE 15. Figures 118–127. Psilochorus pullulus (Hentz). 118–122. Male. 118. Dorsal view of chelicerae. 119. Lateral view of chelicera. 120–121. Dorsal view of bulb apophysis. 122. Lateral view of procursus. 123–127. Epigynum. 123. Anterior view. 124. Ventral view. 125. Posterior view. 126. Dorsal view. 127. Lateral view. Male: (N=5) Total length: 2.36 ± 0.32; carapace length: 0.91 ± 0.09; carapace width: 0.92 ± 0.06; leg 1: 14.71 ± 1.72 (4.06 ± 0.51 + 0.36 ± 0.02 + 4.34 ± 0.60 + 5.01 ± 0.62 + 0.94 ± 0.09); tibia 2: 2.69± 0.26; tibia 3: 2.10 ± 0.22; tibia 4: 3.10 ± 0.30. 16–18 leg I tarsal segments; femur1/carapace length: 4.44 ± 0.44; RT at 10.7–15.6%; DT at 6.6–8.1%. Color typical for the genus. Spur large, originating from the proximal half of the chelicerae (Fig. 119), slightly curved in dorsal view, end truncate (Fig. 118). Procursus short, thick, distal area with a dorsal tab which extends almost to the end, end squared or oblique (Fig. 122). Bulb apophysis thick for 2/3rds of its length, then extending to a point on the prolateral side, retrolateral tab very small or not present (Figs. 120, 121). Female: (N=5) Total length: 2.64 ± 0.32; carapace length: 0.94 ± 0.07; carapace width: 0.97± 0.06; leg 1: 12.92 ± 2.51 (3.54 ± 0.74 + 0.35 ± 0.05 + 3.81± 0.70 + 4.29 ± 0.98 + 0.93 ± 0.08); tibia 2: 2.45 ± 0.44; tibia 3: 1.88 ± 0.39; tibia 4: 2.89 ± 0.45. 16–19 leg I tarsal segments; femur1/carapace length: 3.74 ± 0.58; RT at 10.5–16.1%; DT at 7.2–9.7%. Color typical for the genus. No AEP. MEP rounded in posterior view (Fig. 125), large indentation around PEP projection in ventral view (Fig. 124). PEP triangular, with large, wide PEP projection, dmPEP not touching. Pore plates oval, well separated, on exterio-lateral side of PEP tubes (fig. 126). Remarks. Because specimens could not be located which were identified or examined by Hentz, Thorell or Simon, the identification of P. pullulus is made off of specimens examined and identified by W. Gertsch. See P. i m i t a t u s above. Distribution. Eastern Kansas, east to Florida and north into Canada.

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.
