Bibliographic record
Abstract
Omolabus veracruensis Hamilton, new species (Figs. 1, 19, 76, 77, 78 & 79) Type locality. Mexico, Veracruz. Type Holder. Canadian Museum of Nature (CMNC) Type material. The type series consists of 9 specimens. The holotype male [dissected] is labeled as follows: Mexico, Veracruz, 4.3 mi E Huatusco, 21vi83, 3400', cloud forest, R Anderson (CMNC). The allotype female is labeled as follows: Mexico, Veracruz, 2.8 mi SE Tebanca, E Catemaco, 17vi1985, Askevold & Heffern (CWOB). The sex and label data of the paratypes are as follows: 4 males (labeled same as holotype) (CMNC); 1 female, Mexico, Vcruz [Veracruz], St. Lucrecia, F Knab collector (USNM); 1 male, Mexico, Veracruz, 7 km E Huatusco, Hwy 125, 16 July 1990, 1230 m, JS Ashe, KJ Ahn, R Leschen, ex beating (UKSC). 1 female, Guatemala, Suchit, 8 mi N Sta. Barbara, Finca Sta. [Santa] Adelaida, July 14–16, 1959, P & C Vaurie (AMNH). Size range. Male: 4.3 x 2.3 mm to 4.9 x 2.5 mm; Female: 5.0 x 2.5 mm to 5.2 x 2.7 mm. Description. Body testaceous to reddishbrown. Head with some minute punctures near eyes; frons bisulcate, weakly convex between sulci; vertex weakly convex; eyes reniform, not protuberant, flush with surface of head. Rostrum subequal in length to head, punctured throughout, less punctured dorsally beyond antennal insertions, twice as wide as frons at apex, slightly more than twice as wide in female; postlabial area with pair of short, widely separated, bluntly pointed projections in male. Antennae inserted near basal ¼ of rostrum; club elongatecompact, middle and terminal segments nearly subequal in length, basal segment slightly longer; funicular segment 1 ovoglobose, subequal to scape; 2 shorter than 1, clavate; 3 and 4 subequal, like segment 2 but longer; 5 and 6 subequal to segment 1; 5 slightly shorter; 7 short, moniliform. Pronotum smooth, shiny, with minute shallow punctures; anterior collar weakly defined, dorsally widened and vshaped. Scutellum slightly wider than long, 5sided, with some minute punctures. Elytra longer than wide, widest across humeri, in dorsal view narrowed posteriorly, with weak depression behind scutellum; humeri obliquely angled, with small acute denticle; striae small, shallow, forming linelike grooves at base, widely separated within row, becoming progressively less distinct beyond elytral base; intervals at elytral base weakly convex, becoming flat, smooth and much wider posteriorly. Profemora evenly swollen in both sexes. Distribution (Fig. 1). All specimens are from Veracruz, Mexico except a single female from the western coast of Guatemala. Comments. This species is very similar to O. conicollis but O. veracruensis is distinctly smaller in size and differs in head and rostral characteristics. The aedeaguses of these two species are very distinct (Figs.19 & 21). Host plants. Host plant associations for this species are unknown. Name derivation. The specific name is derived from the Mexican state of Veracruz where the majority of specimens were collected.
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.
