Stems 1-several, very short, up to 12 cm long, when several, the external ones decumbent or prostrate, strigose, hirsute to pilose, the trichomes up to 2.5 mm long, fine, dolabriform, “t” shaped, joined at one point before the end, with equal ends or one shorter than another, appressed or ascending, straight or sinuous. Stipules 2.5–3.8 mm long, semi-clasping, not connate, decurrent, triangular, sometimes with purple tones. Leaves 2.5–14 cm long, leaflets 3–17, 2–27 mm long, ovate, elliptic, obovate to elliptic-obovate, abaxially canescent, adaxially glabrate o subglabrate, clearer. Only the description of chasmogamous inflorescences is included. Peduncles 2–12.5 cm long, ascending or pendulous with age, the racemes 0.7–2.5 cm long, subcapitate or ovoid, flowers 3–17. Flowers ochroleucous, whitishgreene, sometimes distally purple or with blue-purple tones, the veins lavender to purple; the calyx 5–9.7 × 2.2–3 mm, with purple tones, the tube 3.2–4.6 mm long, basally rounded, the teeth 2.2–5.2 mm long, lanceolate; the banner 8.5–14 × 4.6–6.4 mm, oblong to ovate, shallowly o deeply retuse; the wings 7.8–11.8 × 1.6–3 mm long, the claw 3.1–4.4 mm long, the blade 5.1–8.3 mm long, oblanceolate, linear, oblong to lanceolate-obovate, straight or incurved; the keel 6.4–9.8 × 2–3 mm, the claw 3.2–4.6 mm long, the blade 3.3–5.9 mm, obovate. Pod 1–3.7 × 0.5–0.8 cm, ascendant but sometimes humistrate with age, straight, lunately incurved, basally narrow to wide rounded, distally contracted in a triangular beak, dorsally widely sulcate in the basal half or flattened, ventrally carinate, the valves strigose or villose, somewhat fleshy, leathery or stiffly-papery, ochre or sometimes with purple tones, reticulate and wrinkled, septum absent; ovules 28–56; seeds 1.5–2.5 mm long, mitten shaped, brown or with purple spots, opaque. Distribution:— Rare in Mexico, recorded only on southwest Coahuila (Map 51). Also in Canada and USA (Fig. 15). Habitat:— In limestone gravel, roadside; disturbed vegetation, few collections registered for Mexico. Comments:— Only two species of Astragalus with dolabriform pubescence are found in northeastern Mexico, A. hypoleucus and A. lotiflorus, easily discernible by their pod as, A. hypoleucus is triquetrous. Specimens examined:— COAHUILA: 23 October 1963, Carneros Pass, 23 mi. south of Saltillo, H. D. Ripley, R. C. Barneby MEXU, (NY); 1 November 2004, Jume (Sierra Las Vigas), cerros al NE del Valle de Los Lirios a 6 km de San Andrés hacia Jume, R. Torres C. 16759B (MEXU).

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
