Abstract
<i>Bledius basalis</i> LeConte, 1877 <b>NEW BRUNSWICK: Queens Co.:</b> Jemseg, 8.VI.2003, R.P. Webster, silver-maple forest, moist bare clay, (1, RWC). <b>NOVA SCOTIA: Annapolis Co.:</b> Melveryn Square, 24.VI.1992, E. Georgeson, light trap, (9, NSNR); <b>Halifax Co.:</b> Petpeswick, 23.VI.1971, B. Wright, (2, NSMC). <i>Bledius basalis</i> is newly recorded in New Brunswick. Its distribution in Atlantic Canada is shown in Fig. 14. Herman (1976) indicated that the species was found in coastal habitats from Texas north to Rhode Island. Howden (1970) recorded the species from Sable Island (Nova Scotia), the only previously known Canadian location. The above specimens collected from Petpeswick and Melveryn Square establish the occurrence of this species on the mainland of Nova Scotia. All the sites where this species has been recorded in the United States are coastal and most are slightly moist, slightly vegetated sand flats adjacent to the ocean (Herman 1976). This is true of Petpeswick, a sandy inlet on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia. Melveryn Square, however, lies in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia, although it is only 9 km from “Sand Banks”, a sandy coastal beach on the Bay of Fundy, and <i>B. basalis</i> is macropterous and a capable flier. Jemseg (New Brunswick) is 70 km inland from the Bay of Fundy, however, it is located on the shores of Grand Lake, which at 174 km 2, is the largest freshwater body in Atlantic Canada. This would appear to indicate that <i>B. basalis</i>, while occurring predominantly in coastal localities, can also be found in appropriate inland sites away from the ocean.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
