Assessment

Why?

Strongest counted support: The supplied passage directly identifies two Canjuers specimens as Caesaria templaria and lists the stated skull and pygal-bone features. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The study identifies two specimens as Caesaria templaria gen. nov. et sp. nov. and lists diagnostic skull and shell features.

Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
