Type species Fidia lurida Baly, 1863: 153 (not Fidia lurida Dejean, 1836, nom. nud.) Etymology The name Neofidia alludes to the new name for Fidia Baly, 1863, as well as its Nearctic and Neotropical distribution. The gender is feminine.

Fidia xanthonioides Strother in Strother & Staines, 2008: 94 Remarks Strother & Staines (2008) provided a diagnosis and description of the genus. Both the genera, Fidia Motschulsky, 1861 and Neofidia Strother nom. nov., belong to the same tribe, Adoxini Baly, 1863 (sensu Moseyko & Kirejtshuk 2013). The Old World genus Fidia can be separated from the New World genus Neofidia Strother nom. nov. by the presence of a tooth on the ventral side of all femora (absent in Neofidia Strother nom. nov.). Another character mentioned by Strother & Staines (2008), the absence of paired apical spurs on the apex of fore tibia, cannot be used for separating these genera as spurs are present in some species of Fidia, at times being small and poorly visible. Among the Old World genera, Neofidia Strother nom. nov. is mostly close to Aoria Baly, 1863 and the similar genera Aloria Bryant, 1939 and Bromius Chevrolat in Dejean, 1836. It can be separated from Aoria by simple intercoxal mesothoracic process (bifurcated or with two spines in Aoria), from Aloria by 11-segmented antennae (9-segmented in Aloria) and from Bromius by the straight fore margin of lateral arms of pronotum (“propleura” of Jacoby 1908; convex in Bromius). Distribution North and Central America (Strother & Staines 2008) Generic diagnosis Body oblong, punctate-setose, frons and vertex hardly differentiated, antenna filiform, longer than ½ to ¾ of body length, second antennomere shorter than first, longer than half of it, shorter than next four or five. Compound eyes lateral, convex and entire, antennal calli triangular, pronotum as long as wide or gently wider than long, narrower than elytra, without lateral margins, fore margin of lateral arms of pronotum (‘propleuron’) straight, legs long and slender, tibia longitudinally carinate, all femora lack a ventral tooth, intermediate and posterior tibiae not emarginate preapically, apex of each tibia with a pair of small spurs, claws bifid.

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.
