Abstract
Mustela nivalis Linnaeus 1766 Mustela nivalis Linnaeus 1766, Syst. Nat., 12th ed., Vol. 1: 69. Type Locality: " Westrobothnia " [Sweden]. Vernacular Names: Least Weasel. Subspecies:: Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. nivalis Linnaeus 1766 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. allegheniensis Rhoads 1901 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. boccamela Bechstein 1800 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. campestris Jackson 1913 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. caucasica Barrett-Hamilton 1900 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. eskimo Stone 1900 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. heptneri Morozova-Turova 1953 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. mosanensis Mori 1927 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. namiyei Kuroda 1921 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. numidica Pucheran 1855 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. pallida Barrett-Hamilton 1900 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. pygmaea J. A. Allen 1903 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. rixosa Bangs 1896 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. rossica Abramov and Baryshnikov 2000 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. russelliana Thomas 1911 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. stoliczkana Blanford 1877 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. tonkinensis Björkegren 1941 Subspecies Mustela nivalis subsp. vulgaris Erxleben 1777 Distribution: Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Corsica, Crete, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Japan (Hokkaido and Honshu), Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia, Netherlands, New Zealand (introduced – Corbet and Hill, 1980), Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Sardinia, Serbia and Montenegro, Sicily, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, USA, (Alaska and most of the USA except SW), Ukraine. Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc). Discussion: Reviewed by Reichstein (1957), van Zyll de Jong (1992), Reig (1997), and Abramov and Baryshinikov (2000). Reig divided this problematic taxon into four species based on a skull morphometric analysis (subpalmata, rixosa, eskimo, and vulgaris). Abramov and Baryshinikov separated only subpalmata. Youngman (1982) placed nivalis in the subgenus Mustela; Abramov (1999) placed it in the subgenus Gale. Synonyms allocated according to Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951), Hall (1981), Sheffield and King (1994), and Abramov and Baryshnikov (1999).
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.
