A great deal is now known about the functional organization, physiology, reproduction, and development of barnacles. For the first time, this book brings to bear all aspects of this knowledge on our interpretation of the dynamics of barnacle evolution relating them to the fossil history and biogeography of the group.

This work is a continuation of the author's report on the Cirripedia contained in the United States National Museum, of which the portion relating to pedunculate forms was published in 1907. It was at first intended to record the species of sessile Cirripedia in the Museum, with their localities, and to describe and figure new forms. As the collection was worked over, its wealth in American barnacles became apparent and contains nealy every known species of the Western Hemisphere, many of which show variations special to American waters, altering the scope of this work which may now be described as a monograph of American sessile barnacles.

The initial attachment of the barnacle is shown to be a purely mechanical hold by the suction cups of the cyprid antennae. An adhesive cement may be secreted for reinforcement but is not essential for permanent attachment. The Balanidae have permanent, periodically functioning glands which are located in the living mantle tissue. These glands develop directly from the cyprid cement glands. The cement glands and the rest of the cementing apparatus of the Balanidae are basically identical with those of the Lepadidae. The cementing apparatus is flushed after each cement secretion. In this way, old ducts are kept open for emergency repair or reattachment. This emergency secretion is expected to be chemically identical to the cyprid and the normally secreted adult cement.

This book is composed of two sections, Ecological and Fundamental Researches and Approach to Antifouling. Both sections contain research trends on barnacles that have been collected from laboratory work and field studies. Section I: Ecological and Fundamental Researches; Chapter One describes the traditional taxonomy and phylogenetic studies of thoracican barnacles based on morphological examinations. Chapter Two reviews ever rearing trials of the lepadid larvae and introduces recent examples of successful rearing of their larvae and settlement. Chapter Three focuses on barnacle larval dispersal and settlement from the ecological aspects, with common and specific mechanisms on the larval dispersal and settlement summarized. In Chapter Four, chemical cues in barnacle larval settlement are described. In Chapter Five, the authors describe the recent advances on the cellular biology of cyprid cement gland and the molecular characteristics of cyprid cement materials of the barnacle, Megabalanus rosa. Chapter Six describes the roles of the larval sense of vision in barnacles. Section II: Approach to Antifouling; Chapter Seven centers around the antifouling properties of soft materials such as silicone and hydrogels against barnacles both in laboratory and field assays. Chapter Eight concerns the settlement of controllable barnacle populations via LED blue light emission. Chapter Nine concludes the book with a discussion about qPCR to species specific detection of barnacle larvae.

The Barnacle sisters--Bell, Bridget, Benita, Beryl, Belinda and Beth--have been raised in New York bytheir eccentric, self-made father in a fabulous, gigantic Fifth Avenue apartment that, encrusted with Barry Barnacle's scientific collections, feels like a little piece of the Museum of Natural History transplanted to the other side of Central Park. Now that most of the sisters have come of age, Barry Barnacle proposes a contest, a test of wits and wills that should at long last settle what is to Barry the most essential of all questions: nature, or nurture? Whichever of his daughters can most spectacularly carry on his name will inherit his fortune; the others are out cold. It's a proposition to set a Jane Austen heroine on her ear, but in Galt Niederhoffer's A Taxonomy of Barnacles, the Barnacle girls are up to the challenge. Throw the girls' mother Bella and their childhood crushes--the Finch twins next door--into the mix and the stage is set for a completely inventive and utterly fresh social comedy that is as beautifully written as it is unique.
