Abstract
Charippus minotaurus Yu, Maddison & Zhang, sp. nov. Figs 145–169 Type material. Holotype: ♂ (UBCZ; KYU-SAL396), MALAYSIA: Sarawak: Lambir N. P., headquarters area. 4.197– 4.198°N, 114.0400– 114.0402°E, 50 m elev., 30 March–6 April 2012, leg. W.P. Maddison, E.K. Piascik & A. Ang, WPM#12-104. Paratype: 1♀ (UBCZ; KYU-SAL397), same data as holotype. Etymology. The specific epithet is from “Minotaurus”, a monster with a human body and a bull’s head in Ancient Greek mythology, living in labyrinth, and refers to the strong carapace and the labyrinth-like copulatory ducts of the new species; noun in apposition. Diagnosis. Differs from all congeners by the absence of CPSB on the cephalon (Figs 145–146, 150–151), the embolus coiled for more than four circles, the absence of LED (Figs 159, 162), the relatively wide and thick carapace, and the copulatory ducts swerving for more than 15 times (Figs 165–166, 168–169). Description. Male. Habitus as shown in Fig. 150. Carapace length 2.73; abdomen length 1.80. Measurements of eyes: AME 0.54, ALE 0.30, PME 0.10, PLE 0.28. Measurements of legs: I 4.95 (1.58, 0.84, 1.19, 0.77, 0.57), II 3.73 (1.26, 0.61, 0.79, 0.65, 0.42), III 3.86 (1.37, 0.58, 0.67, 0.72, 0.52), IV 3.99 (1.28, 0.50, 0.88, 0.83, 0.50). Chelicerae with small triangular projection distally (Fig. 153); promargin with two stout teeth, retromargin with one bicuspid tooth. Palp (Figs 158–163): yellowish brown; embolus slender and long, coiled for more than four circles; embolic disc large, slightly sclerotized, without LED; tegulum slightly sclerotized, tegular lobe present; salticid radix slightly sclerotized; both retrolateral and prolateral sperm duct loops present; retrolateral tibial apophysis relatively narrow and long, intermediately curved. Sternum with setal tuft sub-centrally. Color in alcohol (Fig. 150): carapace reddish brown to dark, without CPSB; dorsal abdomen pale yellowish with brown markings, slightly sclerotized; legs yellowish brown, with annuli and pale yellowish setae. Female. Habitus as shown in Fig. 151. Carapace length 2.78; abdomen length 2.66. Chelicerae (Fig. 155) as in male but without small apophysis. Measurements of eyes: AME 0.60, ALE 0.30, PME 0.08, PLE 0.24. Measurements of legs: I 4.28 (1.38, 0.74, 0.99, 0.64, 0.53), II 3.56 (1.27, 0.57, 0.72, 0.55, 0.45), III 3.67 (1.33, 0.65, 0.59, 0.63, 0.47), IV 4.23 (1.36, 0.64, 0.84, 0.78, 0.61). Color in alcohol (Fig. 151): carapace as in male; abdomen pale yellow with brown markings. Setal tuft on sternum as in male. Epigynum (Figs 164, 167): window relatively small, rims not obviously sclerotized, median septum wide, extending to area near genital furrow; lateral depressions deep. Vulva (Figs 165–166, 168): CD extremely long and coiled, swerving for more than 15 times, slightly widened at origin; AG small and oval; spermathecae prominent, bulging, kidney shaped. Natural history. The holotype was collected in dry sticks. Distribution. Malaysia (Sarawak).
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.
