Body length 5.1–7.0 mm. Covered in pale brown, dark gray, and black scales, with a tan-colored, V-shaped, transverse band across middle of elytra. Pronotum lacking distinct longitudinal, impunctate midline (present in A. koguma). Scutellum covered in pale scales (Fig. 3 F). Elytra with erect scales only on odd intervals. Sclerolepidia distinct and protruding. Third tarsomeres distinctly emarginate. Pedon with lateral edges approx. parallel in dorsal view, but weakly sinuating into a blunt, subtriangular point. Internal sac not visible inside aedeagus, but with a protruding basal structure extending to the end of the temo and tuberculate (roughened) musculature anteriorly at the apex (Fig. 6 Q 1 – 2). Distribution. This species is endemic to Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, and is currently only known from Ishigaki, Iriomote, and apparently also Okinawa Island. Remarks. This species is quite similar in size and color to A. palliata; however, it was differentiated by Morimoto and Miyakawa (1995) on the basis of elytral color differences alone. To verify the validity of this species the type series of A. shigematsui and A. palliata were compared, and several significant differences in external and genital morphology were discovered which are all newly reported in the dichotomous key below. Furthermore, although A. shigematsui was previously only known from Ishigaki and Iriomote Islands, a specimen deposited in the KUM was collected on Okinawa Island (400 km away from the type localities). No specimens of A. shigematsui have since been collected on the island. Further field studies are required to ascertain whether this rarely collected species is truly established on the island.
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.
