Hydrallmania falcata: part of hydrocaulus with two branches and hydrothecae, ROMIZ B3900. Scale equals 0.5 mm. Remarks. Taxonomic reviews of Dynamena pumila (Linnaeus, 1758) have been given in works including those of Cornelius (1979, 1995b), and need not be repeated here. This well-known boreal and largely intertidal species is abundant on fucoid algae (especially Ascophyllum nodosum and Fucus spp.) and underlying rocky substrates on shores of northwestern Europe and northeastern North America. Hydroids of D. pumila are well-adapted to environmental stresses of life in the intertidal zone, and they occur in both wave-sheltered and wave-exposed areas (Rossi et al. 2000). The location of colonies on algal substrates varies depending on exposure, with those from sheltered areas occurring on mid- to upper parts of thalli and those from more exposed areas occupying areas towards the base (Cornelius 1979). On very high-energy shores, Cornelius noted that colonies may be restricted to crevices and to the undersides of overhangs. On very sheltered shores, they tend to occur in areas of maximum tidal flow. He also reported that hydrothecae of specimens from an exposed site had thicker perisarc and were notably smaller than those from an exposed site. Annulations on the stem facilitate bending, and basal articulating joints allow flexing of up to 180° in either direction (Hughes 1992). These skeletal structures facilitate feeding and minimize the risk of breakage or complete dislodging of the colony from its substrate under high-energy conditions. The ability of the stem to flex and bend also allows the colony to lie against the substrate during exposure at low tides, reducing the risk of desiccation. At the northern limits of its range, D. pumila survives an extended period of the year as dormant tissue in stems and stolons. Colonies that I observed in southern Labrador during early summer (late June and early July, 2000) were just beginning growth. Further south in the Bay of Fundy region, eastern Canada, the species declines significantly in abundance during winter but nevertheless remains active all year (Henry 2001). Intertidal colonies of Dynamena pumila were frequently observed in the study area during the workshop at Tjärnö in late summer 2010 on both attached and detached fucoids. Material listed above (ROMIZ B3903) was found in deeper waters but occurred on a detached algal thallus. At water temperatures of about 17º C, these hydroids were active but frequently overgrown by algae and diatoms. The species is common as well in Danish waters (Kramp 1935b) and in the Oslofjord, Norway (Christiansen 1972). Reported distribution. West coast of Sweden.—Koster area to the Öresund (Jäderholm 1909, as Sertularia pumila). Elsewhere.—Boreal waters of the North Atlantic from the Barents and White seas to Portugal in Europe (da Cunha 1944; Naumov 1960; Cornelius 1995b), and from southern Labrador to New Jersey in North America (Fraser 1944, as Sertularia pumila).

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.
