A Catalogue of the Cirrhipeda found on the Coast of Berwickshire. 

 By Dr JOHNSTON. 



I. CIRRHIPEDA SESSILIA. 



1. Balanus communis, Mont. Test. Brit. p. 6. On the roots and 

 stems of the larger Fuci, on stones from deep water, and on crabs, com- 

 mon. 



2. Balanus Balanoides, Mont. Test. Br. p. 7 On stones, fuci, and 

 the shells of crabs, common. This species exhibits the interior cellular 

 structure of the valves in a very distinct manner. 



3. Balanus punctatus, Mont. Test. Brit. p. 8, pi. ,fig. 5. This is by 

 much our commonest species, and literally covers the rocks between 

 tide-marks, for it is never found within the line of low water, as the pre- 

 ceding usually are. When young the shell is smooth and oval (Lepas 

 convexula, Penn. Br. Zool. iv. 150,/>/. 38,^. med.\ but in its growth, 

 pressed upon and constrained by others, it becomes irregular in its out- 

 line and rough. On the Berwickshire shores it seldom exceeds the 

 quarter of an inch in diameter, and is about the same in height, but from 

 the neighbourhood of Bamborough I have specimens nearly an inch 

 long, the height exceeding three times the measurement of the base. 



4. Clitia striata, Leach. Lepas striata, Penn. Br. Zool. iv. 148, pL 

 41, fig. inf. Balanus striatus, Mont. Test. Br. p. 14. Creusia verruca, 

 Lamarck. On the roots and stalk of Laminaria digitata, on shells and 

 corallines, common.
