A review of ground beetle species (Coleoptera: Carabidae) of Minnesota, United States : New records and range extensions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We report new Minnesota records for 13 genera and 100 species of ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae), reflecting 21% and 31% increases, respectively, over records in the literature.There are now 76 genera and 433 carabid species recorded from Minnesota.New material was collected from sub-boreal forest study sites in northeastern and central Minnesota.We also surveyed 16 museum collections and private collections in the United States with an emphasis on collections in the north central region and those likely to contain Minnesota records.New generic records for Minnesota from the museum collections include Paratachys Casey, Nomius Laporte, Platypatrobus Darlington, Gastrellarius Casey, Lophoglossus LeConte, Pseudamara Lindroth, Panagaeus Latreille, Dicheirotrichus Jacquelin du Val, Discoderus LeConte, Leptotrachelus Latreille, Tetragonoderus Dejean, Apenes LeConte, and Axinopalpus LeConte.New species records from the field surveys in northeastern and central Minnesota include Notiophilus aquaticus (Linnaeus), Sphaeroderus nitidicollis brevoorti LeConte, Trechus crassiscapus Lindroth, Bembidion mutatum Gemminger & Harold, Bembidion wingatei Bland, Patrobus foveocollis (Eschscholtz), Patrobus septentrionis Dejean, Pterostichus melanarius (llliger), Amara coelebs Hayward, Pseudamara arenaria (LeConte), Bradycellus semipubescens Lindroth, Harpalus ventralis LeConte, Agonum affine Kirby, and Agonum trigeminum Lindroth.In addition, we highlight the special role of P. melanarius as an invasive beetle.Since many of the new records were based on specimens stored in research entomological collections, we recognize the significance of institutional holdings as a source of information for studies of native biodiversity.
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.
