Bibliographic record
Abstract
Eoteredon lacoi sp. nov. (Figs 3, 4) Material. Holotype FOBU13582 (part and counterpart of a nearly complete female) (Fig. 3). Housed in the collections of Fossil Butte National Monument, Kemmerer, Wyoming. Etymology. The specific epithet is formed from the surname of Greg Laco, who donated the holotype to Fossil Butte National Monument, recognizing his contribution. Diagnosis. As for the genus. Type locality and horizon. The type and only specimen was found in the 18-inch Layer of the Fossil Butte Member of the Green River Formation in Fossil Basin, approximately six meters below the K-spar Tuff dated at 51.98 ± 0.35 Ma. The Smith Hollow type locality is 11 miles west of downtown Kemmerer, Wyoming, USA. Description. Female, preserved in ventral aspect, except head in frontal aspect. Head poorly preserved, 4.5 mm long, 3.5 mm wide, with compound eyes, mandibles poorly visible; ocelli, antenna, antennal sockets not discernible; thorax 8.7 mm long, 5.5 mm wide; only parts of metathoracic legs preserved, poorly: femur 2.2 mm long and 1.0 mm wide, 3.5 as broad as metatibia; metatibia ca. 3.8 mm long as preserved, 0.3 mm wide; fragments of metabasitarsomere possibly present. Forewing 17.5 mm long, 5.0 mm wide, with apex poorly preserved; 2r–m present, joins cell 2M; cell 1Rs2 clearly longer than wide; cell 1R1 rather broad, only 2.8 times as long as broad; cell 2R1 about 0.7 times as long as cell 3R1; 2r-rs joins stigma in its distal half; stigma gradually attenuated evenly distal to junction with 2r-rs; Cu1 absent; 1cu–a joining Cu midway between 1m –cu, M; Sc faint, present in basal third of wing; 2A extending along posterior edge of wing about 0.5 times cell 1A length; 3A possibly distorted (see text). Hind wing ca. 11.3 mm long; anal cell presumed open (see below); hamuli not discernible; 1r–m clearly shorter than M; 1r–m at basal third of cell 1M; M markedly curved; abdomen 16.3 mm long, 7.0 mm wide, tergites not discernible (preserved in ventral aspect); distinct but incomplete ovipositor, preserved portion 8.8 mm long, extending 2.2 mm from abdomen; annuli not discernible.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
