Phylogenetics and morphological evolution of coraldwelling barnacles (Balanomorpha: Pyrgomatidae)
Pyrgomatid barnacles are a family of balanomorphs uniquely adapted to symbiosis on corals. The evolution of the coral-dwelling barnacles is explored using a multi-gene phylogeny (COI, 16S, 12S, 18S, and H3) and phenotypic trait-mapping. We found that the hydrocoral associate Wanella should be excluded, while some archaeobalanids in the genus Armatobalanus should be included in the Pyrgomatidae....
متن کاملA rejoinder and addendum to Hayashi (2011) regarding the systematics and biology of the turtle and whale barnacles (Cirripedia: Balanomorpha: Coronuloidea)
Barnacles of the superfamily Coronuloidea are obligate commensals of motile marine animals (Newman & Ross, 1976). Excepting the coronuloid genus Chelonibia Leach, the species included in this superfamily occur strictly upon marine vertebrates, particularly sea turtles and whales (Frick et al., 2011). Chelonophilic (turtle-associated) and cetophilic (whale-associated) coronuloids produce highly-...
متن کاملBiodiversity and Biogeography of Chthamalid Barnacles from the North-Eastern Pacific (Crustacea Cirripedia)
The biogeography and ecology of the species of Chthamalus present on the west coast of America are described, using data from 51 localities from Alaska to Panama, together with their zonation on the shore with respect to that of other barnacles. The species present were C. dalli, Pilsbry 1916, C. fissus, Darwin, 1854, C. anisopoma Pilsbry 1916 and four species in the C. panamensis complex. The ...
متن کاملTwo new species of scalpelliform barnacles (Cirripedia: Thoracica) from the Plio-Pleistocene of Cotentin, northwest France.
Two new species of pedunculate cirripede are described from the Plio-Pleistocene of Cotentin, northwest France. Scalpellum carentanensis sp. nov. is only the third species of this genus to be recorded from Pliocene strata in Europe. It is characterised by a triangular tergum with an apico-basal fold, without an outward extension, the inner surface of which has the raised part marked by wide gro...
متن کاملA New and Primitive Barnacle (Cirripedia: Balanomorpha) from the North Fiji Basin Abyssal Hydrothermal Field, and Its Evolutionary Implications
A new sessile barnacle, Eochione/asmus ohtai, n. gen ., n. sp ., has been discovered associated with an abyssal hydrothermal vent at 1990 m depth in the North Fiji Basin, Southwest Pacific. The genus is distinguished from its closest and bathyal relative, Chione/asmus , in having distinct, multiple whorls of basal imbricating plates. These and other characters render it the most primitive livin...
