Bibliographic record
Abstract
Aleiodes itamevorus Shaw and Marsh (Figs. 8, 19) Aleiodes itamevorus Shaw and Marsh, 2004, Zootaxa 656: 4. Female diagnosis. Body color: (Fig. 8) head including antennae, mesosoma and metasoma dark brown or black, occasionally with yellow markings on face, inner eye orbits, pronotum and mesonotum; legs honey yellow, hind tarsus light brown; wings hyaline, veins brown, tegula yellow. Body length, 3.5–4.5 mm; fore wing length, 3.5–4.5 mm. Head: eyes and ocelli small, not covering most of head; 41–44 antennomeres, all flagellomeres longer than wide; mallar space moderate, very slightly longer than basal width of mandible and about 2/3 eye height; occipital carina complete, reaching hypostomal carina; oral space small and circular, diameter about 3/4 basal width of mandible and 2/3 face height; clypeus weakly swollen; ocelli small, ocellocular distance slightly greater than twice diameter of lateral ocellus; head entirely rugulocoriaceous; maxillary palpus not swollen; mandible small, tips not crossing when closed. Mesosoma: pronotum costate laterally; mesonotum and scutellum coriaceous, notauli weakly scrobiculate, meeting posteriorly in traingular rugose ares; mesopleuron coriaceous, smooth above episternal scrobe, subalar sulcus rugulose, sternaulus absent; propodeum rugose coriaceous, median carina complete. Legs: tarsal claws not pectinate; hind coxa coriaceous dorsally. Wings: fore wing with vein r 1/2 to 2/3 length of 3RSa and mcu, second submarginal cell often nearly square, vein rm curiously absent on some specimens and often only on one wing, vein 1cua beyond 1M by distance equal to or less than length of 1cua, vein 1CUa 1/3 or less length of 1CUb; hind wing (Fig. 19) with vein RS slightly arched in middle, marginal cell narrowest in middle, vein 1rm about 3/4 length of 1M, vein 1M about 2/3 length of M+CU, vein mcu a distinct tubular vein for most of its length, about 2/3 length of 1rm. Metasoma: appearing carapacelike, terga 1–4 often concealing following terga, terga 1–4 all rugose coriaceous, remainder of visible terga smooth, median carina complete on terga 1–3, groove between terga 2 and 3 deep and scrobiculate; ovipositor less than 1/2 length of hind basitarsus. Male. Essentially as in female except all coxae dark brown or black. Type material examined. Holotype.—Female: ONTARIO, Gogama, 1 km SE Jct. Hwys. 144 & 560, June 15–18, 1988, reared, K. Barber & D. Hamilton, jack pine plantation, Vaccinium angustifolium; host, Itame brunneata (Thunberg). Deposited in CNC. Paratypes examined. ONTARIO, 13 females, 12 males, same data as holotype with additional dates of June 2–7, 1988. WISCONSIN: 1 female, 1 male, Jackson Co., T21N, R4W, S27, May 14–27, 1975, Gypsy moth m.t.; 14 males, Bayfield Co., T46N, R9W, S16, May 12–June 3, 1975, Gypsy moth m.t.; 1 female, Oneida Co., T35N, R11E, S17, May 20–28, 1975, Gypsy moth m.t.; 3 males, Fond duLac Co., T 31N. R19E, S23, July 29–August 5, 1975, Gypsy moth m.t. Deposited in CNC, RMSEL, USNM, AEI. Distribution. Known only from the type localities in Ontario and Wisconsin. Biology. Reared from the geometrid Itame brunneata (Thunberg). Comments. This species is similar to A. maritimus but is easily distinguished from other species by the distinct tubular vein mcu in the hind wing (Fig. 19). Here we see an example of unusual variability in wing venation that sometimes occurs in Braconidae. In some specimens vein rm of the fore wing is missing or only partially present. This may occur in only one wing or in both.
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.
