Ferrington Jr., who originally collected the species in Kansas, USA, and who also collected specimens from Minnesota, USA. Diagnosis. Parachaetocladius lenferringtoni sp. nov. can be distinguished from other Parachaetocladius species based on a combination of the following characteristics. Adult male with AR 0.82–0.98, 0.91; clypeus appearing hexagonal with lateral edges and the base curved; wing’s squama with 11–15, 14 setae, R 4+5 with 0–7, 2 setae; anal point shallow and cone-shaped; sternapodeme slightly arched, oral projections thick; inferior volsella blunt, gonostylus well expanded in mid to anterior section with crista dorsalis developed, stretching from mid to anterior sections, but visible at certain orientations. Adult female with AR 0.42–0.48, 0.46; clypeus appears hexagonal with lateral edges and the base curved; the apodeme lobe indistinct, however, large; notum 127–134, 130 μm long; tergite IX not divided, though a moderate mid-section notch is present, crescent-shaped. Pupa with 10–18 well-developed spines in posterior spine row on sternite III; anal lobes posteriorly extended into slender tips; a row of blunt spines posterolaterally on anal lobes and extending onto tips; inner macrosetae smaller than other two, denticles on anal macrosetae usually absent. Fourth instar larva with postmentum 167–185, 179μm long; antenna 6 segmented with last segment vestigial, AR 1.1–1.5, 1.3, blade 1.4–1.7, 1.5 × the length of antennal segments; anal tubules with one or two constrictions 0.6–0.8, 0.6 × the length of the posterior parapods.
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.
