Abstract
Staphylinidae is a hyperdiverse and abundant family of Coleoptera found worldwide.My research focuses on how Staphylinidae functional diversity varies with environmental changes associated with the elevation gradient (e.g.temperature decreases with increasing elevation) on Volcn Cacao in the rea de Conservacin Guanacaste (ACG) in northwestern Costa Rica.Since 2008, multiple samples have been taken at various elevations (10m above sea level -1500m above sea level) and in the three distinct forest types (dry forest, rainforest and tropical montane cloud forest (TMCF)) that characterize Volcn Cacao.Through morphometric measurements and discreet variables such as exoskeleton texture and colour, I will investigate the changes in Staphylindae functional morphospace along the elevation gradient and between the forest types.Like many tropical arthropods, our understanding of staphylinids suffers severe taxonomic impediments due to the relative scarcity of taxonomists working on them, many unnamed and undescribed species, and the many described species that may represent multiple separate species.My proposed research will add to our limited knowledge on neotropical staphylinids and test predictions regarding how abiotic factors such as temperature and precipitation affect functional measures of diversity.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
