Abstract
Microphorella iota Colless (Figs 1, 47, 48) Microphorella iota Colless, 1964: 320. Type locality: Mt. Majura, ACT, Australia. Type material examined. HOLOTYPE ♂ labelled: “[AUSTRALIA] Mt. Majura [ca 35.2372°S 149.1822°E], A.C. T. [Australian Capital Territory]/ 2 Apr. 1963 / D.H. Colless. ”; “ ANIC 5873 / HOLOTYPE / Microphorella / iota. Colless. [red label]”; “ ANIC Database No./ 29 029403” (ANIC). ALLOTYPE ♀, same locality and date data as holotype (ANIC). PARATYPES: AUSTRALIA: A.C. T., Canberra, Mt. Majura, 29.ix.1960, D.H. Colless (1♂, ANIC); A.C. T. Ginninderra Falls [ca 35.1968°S 148.9617°E], 28.ii.1962, D.H. Colless (2♀, ANIC). Other material examined. AUSTRALIA: New South Wales, Colo Vale [ca 34.4017°S 150.4886°E], 17.i.1957, W.W, Wirth (5♀, USNM). Diagnosis. Males of M. iota are distinguished from the other known Australasian Microphorella by the following combination of features: body and legs blackish brown or blackish grey with black setation; palpus dark and narrowly ovate, dorsal surface with club-tipped processes (Colless 1964, fig. 1d); hypopygium (Figs 47, 48) with phallus relatively short, swollen along midlength, with tip bent back and brush-like; hypandrium large, distinctly wider than epandrial lamellae in lateral view. Distribution. In addition to the two localities in the Australian Capital Territory listed above, Colless (1964) recorded two female paratypes (in the Australian Museum, Sydney, Australia) from Sassafras Gully [ca 33.6992°S 150.5711°E], Springwood, in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales collected by D.K. McAlpine on 10.i.1956. We have also seen additional specimens from Colo Vale in New South Wales (Fig. 1). Remarks. Until this study, M. iota was the the only described species of Microphorella known from Australia. In their phylogenetic analysis of the Parathalassiinae, Cumming & Brooks (2019), determined that M. iota was not closely related to M. papuana from New Guinea or the two new Australian species of Microphorella described in this paper. Males of M. iota have club-tipped processes on the dorsal surface of the palpus, possess a unique phallus with a modified brush-like apex and have a large hypandrium. Colless (1964) states that specimens of M. iota were all collected by sweeping near streams. The females from Colo Vale differ slightly from the other known specimens by their blackish grey coloration.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
