THE BURROWING BARNACLES (CIRRIPEDIA: ACROTHORACICA) 65 



The posterior end of the thorax bears the fine cu-cular striations 

 typical of the order. 



The male: The male is not unusual for the order (fig. 12n). Young 

 males are hyaline, without surface ornamentation or armament of 

 any kind. A pair of antennules attach him to the female near the 

 attachment disk, and connect to the male directly without the long 

 stalk seen in some species. A penis is present. As the male matures 

 he appears to elongate, extending from 0.28 mm to 0.48 mm in body 

 length.
