Las plantas del paraguay natural ilustrado de sánchez labrador (s.J.): Complejizando la identificación de los ycipo y otras “yerbas” relacionadas
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the use of Jesuit documents in ethnobotanical works related to plant identification, among other aspects. The aim of this paper is to identify the plants present in Book V of Part II of Paraguay Natural Ilustrado, to present their uses, and to discuss the scope of the concept of ycipo proposed by the author in relation to current and past works. In addition, it is intended to highlight the contribution of this work in the study of Jesuit documents. Using the historical ethnobotanical methodology, the book V Ycipos, y otras plantas sarmentosas (39 handwritten pages and 11 illustrations) of the manuscript Paraguay Natural Ilustrado by José Sánchez Labrador (1772) was analyzed. Fifty-nine plants (59 botanical taxa) were surveyed, 28 identified to species level, 20 to generic level, 3 to family level and 8 that could not be identified, all of them with documented uses. The detailed nature of the descriptions provided by Sánchez Labrador made it possible to identify most of the plants at the species or species group level, of which more than half of the total constitute novelties in the Jesuit bibliography, allowing in some cases to clarify the taxonomic identity of plants from other Jesuit works. In the case of the term ycipo, it is suggested that it had a much broader and more complex meaning than it has today.

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.
