New synonymy. Type material The three syntypes of V. australis are in the BMNH (89.5.15.181). The type locality is south of Australia, 48º18’S, 130º04’E, surface. Type material of synonyms Type material of V. australis var. pelagica and V. wolterecki could not be found at the ZMB or ZMH and is considered lost. Judging by the description and figures of Behning and Woltereck (1912) and Behning (1925) there is no good reason to maintain the variety. Similarly, Behning’s (1939) description and figures of V. wolterecki readily characterise V. australis. Vinogradov et al. (1982) do not mention V. wolterecki! The syntypes of V. seriocellatus are in the ZMUC (CRU 2830). All of the specimens are clearly identifiable with V. australis. Stephensen (1932b) was apparently unaware of Stebbing’s species for he makes no mention of it. Material examined (111 specimens) Types. Three syntypes of V. australis, Challenger, 9 th & 10 th March, 1874: 2 specimens in spirit; 3 microscope slides of head, G1 & 2, P3–7 and pleon. Seven syntypes of V. seriocellatus from Matsu Bay, northern Honshu, Japan, December, 1931, in “body cavity of a Salpa ”: in spirit. Other material examined. East China Sea: 3 lots (SAMA), 3 specimens. North Atlantic: 1 lot (USNM), 10 lots (ZMB), 1 lot (ZMUC), 19 specimens. South Atlantic: 1 lot (off Rio de Janeiro), 1 lot (BMNH), 1 lots (ZMB), 11 specimens. North Pacific: 3 lots (CAS), 9 lots (USNM), 60 specimens. South Indian: 8 lots (SAM), 9 specimens. Diagnosis Body length up to 6 mm. Eyes with ocelli in three, almost vertical, rows. Antennae 1 as long as head and first two pereonites; flagellum with parallel margins, tapering gradually toward apex, with relatively straight ventral margin. Antennae 2 very short, consisting of 2–4 articles. Gnathopod 2; carpal process about as long as propodus. Pereopods 3 & 4; dactylus length about half propodus. Pereopods 5 & 6; dactylus length about 0.3x propodus. Pereopod 7; basis rectangular, width about 0.7x length, as long as ischium to middle of propodus combined, with rounded posterodistal lobe overlapping ischium. Lateral corners of last urosomite not produced. Uropod 3; peduncle distinctly longer than rami; sexual dimorphism of endopod not evident. Telson triangular, length 0.5–0.7x peduncle of U3. Remarks In general appearance this species is similar to V. caeca but is readily distinguished by the eyes. Vibilia australis is also unusual in having very short second antennae of only 2– 4 articles, a character, which it shares only with V. caeca. This is the smallest species of Vibilia. The salp associate has not been recorded for this species but specimens found off British Columbia, Canada have been found associated with Cyclosalpa bakeri (Moira Galbraith pers. comm.). Stephensen (1932b) records his specimens from the body cavity of Salpa. Distribution This is an uncommon species, widely distributed in the tropical and temperate regions of the world’s oceans.

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.
