Lcpas cDiatifcra Linnasus. Fig. 4 



This is a fairly abundant goose barnacle, found in hold fasts of 

 kelp and occasionally on driftwood and floating objects. The size 

 \'aries from a few millimeters to almost an inch in length. The 

 distinguishing characters are the very fine striations on the valves, 

 the presence of an umbonal tooth on the right scutum, and the prox- 

 imity of the base of the carina to the scutum. The valves are a deli- 

 cate pale blue color and the peduncle a deep purplish brown.
