This flower-like barnacle su[)erficially resemljles B. amaryllis Darwin and B. corolUfonnh Hoek. but differs from both in important characters, more especially in the features of the base, which place it in a different section. There seems to be no very closely allied species among those referred to Darwin's section C, except Balanus spongicola Brown, of the Atlantic, which differs by the longitudinal sculpture of the scutum, a feature upon which Darwin lays especial stress, and by various other differences in the shape of the scutum and tergum. The moutli parts and cirri would seem to be much as in .B. spongicola, judging from Darwin's description. Balaiius ^mrihis Darwin differs from B. Jlos liy its coloration, the shapes of the opercular valves, and l)y various features of the cirri. The diverging apices of the terga are a prominent feature of JS. //os at all stages of growth. â Thespeci- meitfrom station 4420 is very pale pink, almost white, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
