Phanérogramie. Paris 10: 270 (Leandri 1942). — Type: Madagascar. Prov. Antsiranana, collines et plateaux calcaires de l’Analamera, I.1938, H. Humbert 19149 (lecto-, designated by Montero Muñoz et al. [2018a: 105]: P [P00536737]; isolecto-, P [P00536736, P00536738]). ICONOGRAPHY. — Leandri (1942: 269); Fig. 57G. ETYMOLOGY. — The epithet refers to the vernacular name of this plant, known as Menavody [cul rouge] (Leandri 1942). DISTRIBUTION AND HABITAT. — Endemic to Madagascar (Diana and Sava). Dry deciduous forest. On Mesozoic limestone. Altitudinal range 40-315 m (Fig. 56). PRELIMINARY CONSERVATION ASSESSMENT. — The EOO of Acalypha menavody is estimated to be 2 994 km 2 and its AOO 28 km 2. This species has been collected from several protected areas: Montagne des Français, which has been a protected area since 2006 (Category V; Dudley 2008), but most parts of the forest have been degraded by agriculture, grazing, and charcoal extraction (Sabel et al. 2009; De Block 2018); Ankarana Special Reserve (see assessment of A. ankaranensis); and Loky-Manambato, which has been a protected area since 2005 (Category V; Dudley, 2008), but the forest of which has been extensively degraded and continues to be threatened by subsistence farming, fires to clear land for grazing, logging, and gold extraction. The most serious threat in this last site is the illegal cutting of precious woods (Rambeloson 1999; Vargas et al. 2002; Rakotondravony 2009; Goodman et al. 2018). This species has also been collected in unprotected areas. Habitat loss and continued degradation of forests in these areas lead us to assess A. menavody as Endangered: EN B1ab(i,iii,iv) + B2ab(ii,iii,iv). MATERIAL EXAMINED. — 8 collections.

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.
