Effects of settlement density on spatial arrangement in four intertidal barnacles

Balamus amphitrite was studied in an estuary in central Florida from Oct 1990 to Nov 1990, while three other barnacle species were studied on the central coast of California from Apr 1988 to Jul 1989. Morphological differences between balanomorph and lepidomorph barnacles may influence the evolution...
