Lateral amphid and single papilla on each subventral lip. Cuticle with distinct striations. Lateral alae from base of lips to tail. Deirids small, at level of excretory pore. Tail long, conical, pointed (Fig. 85 A). Phasmids in midregion of tail. Male gonad from slightly anterior of midpoint of larva to rectum. Testis thin-walled. Posterior portion of gonad with walls of low cuboidal cells. Spicule pouches extending dorsally and anteriorly from dorsal wall of rectum. Developing spicules narrow, not cuticularized (Fig. 85 A). Female gonad 20–25% of length of larva. Vagina slightly anterior to midpoint of larva (Fig. 85 B). Uterus dividing into two posteriorly directed branches, slightly posterior from vagina. Oviduct proximal to uterus, short. Ovaries straight, thin-walled, filled with large germinal cells. L3: males 1.682 (1.444–2.056) long; females 1.925 (1.690–2.248) long. Anterior end with ventral boring tooth, four large papillae subdorsally and subventrally, pair of single papillae, and pair of amphids laterally. Lips absent. Lateral alae from anterior end to tail, widest in anterior third. Cuticle with fine transverse striations. Deirids small, at level of excretory pore. Tail conical, pointed. Phasmids in midregion of tail. Three rectal cells around anterior part of rectum. Sexes distinct. Vaginal primordium an ovoid mass of cuboidal cells, embedded in ventral body wall, near midpoint of larva. Two ovaries extending posteriorly from vagina. Gonad in male straight, elongate, ventral to intestine in posterior quarter of body. L2: body 0.899 (0.787–1.009) long. Anterior end bluntly rounded with 4 large papillae subdorsally and subventrally. Mouth opening approximately triangular in outline. Conical boring tooth at ventral apex of mouth opening. Lips absent. Lateral alae narrow. Cuticular striations not seen. Deirids small, at level of excretory pore which is slightly posterior to nerve ring. Preventriculus claviform. Ventriculus about as long as wide, with posteriorly directed ventricular appendix. Genital primordium ovoid, comprising four to eight cells. Tail conical, pointed.

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.
