Bibliographic record
Abstract
Sogda enigma Peck & Cook, new species (Figs. 68, 75–78) Type material. Holotype: ♂ (CMNC). CANADA : Ontario: Stittsville, D.A. Smith’s woods, 18.X–11.XII.1979, S. Peck, forest malaise trough. Paratype (1): UNITED STATES: Maryland: Cabin John Ravine, 1.IX.1920, R.C. Shannon, ♂ (USNM). Diagnostic description. Shining, reddish brown except elytra which are yellowish with narrow darker lateral margins. Length of pronotum + elytra = 2.6–2.9 mm (males). Head irregularly, sparsely punctate. Pronotum widest near middle, sides obtusely rounded at middle, basal angles obtuse; ratio length:width = 1:1.4; coarsely, irregularly punctate, with reticulate microsculpture. Elytra of medium length, wider than pronotum, ratio length:width = 1:0.7; with 9 coarsely, closely punctate striae; stria 1 clearly impressed, remaining striae weakly or not impressed; intervals irregularly punctate. Antennal club (Fig. 75) moderately broad, ratio club width:length = 1:2.8; width ratio of antennomeres 7:8:9 = 1.3:1:1.7. Mandibles not dissected; apex of right mandible slender, unidentate; apex of left mandible broad, unidentate. Profemur and mesofemur of male unarmed; male metafemur (Fig. 77) with posterior margin serrulate, tooth before apex. Male protibia (Fig. 76) widened and concave dorsally at apex, with elongate, sinuate spur; male mesotibia weakly widened apically; male metatibia (Fig. 77) angulate at about basal one-fourth of inner margin, narrow at base, widened in apical three-fourths; all tibiae spinose on outer margins. Male. Aedeagus (Fig. 78) with median lobe broad, narrowing to very thin, broadly rounded apex. Parameres short, reaching apex of median lobe, slender, with inwardly angled apices and two apical setae. Female. Unknown. Distribution. The species is known only from two localities in eastern North America (Fig. 68). Field notes, habitats and seasonality. The holotype was taken in a mature maple forest in a flight intercept trap in fall or early winter. Etymology. The epithet enigma (from Latin aenigma, puzzle) refers to our initial difficulty in the generic placement of this species.
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.
