Active feeding on these panels unquestionably disturbed other fouling organisms. Balsa wood was apparently sloughing its surface and thus loosening attached forms. In spite of these minor qualifications, the results involve a range of population numbers sufficiently wide to indicate the relative merits of the substrates used. One of the most interesting of the results was observed when barnacles were removed from the various substrates. Some of the substrates bore barnacles with deeply scalloped margins (Fig. 4) instead of the typical smooth edges. These margins suggested that localized irregular marginal growth interruptions had taken place. Such barnacles were collected from : Spar varnish Linoleum Navy grey topside paint (P—50) Antifouling paint vehicle 15RC Ester gum paint vehicle Anticorrosive paint 42-.\ "' ft*, c?. FIGURE 5.
