#barnacles — Public Fediverse posts

#Balanomorpha is a clade of #barnacles of the higher taxon#Cirripedia (Crustacea). Here #sessile adults of the invasive #Balanus #trigonus with their typical ribbed #shells, secreted by pouch-like carapaces. M.Zhang et al. (2023) isolated the #mitochondrialgenome of another neozoon: Megabalanus coccopoma,thus establishing it as #scientificmodel.

#Beach gooseneck #barnacles find.
There's 3 different types of barnacles found in BC waters/on beaches - acorn, gooseneck & whale - the latter grows on whales' bodies. Barnacles are a longtime, year-round staple #seafood for coastal #Indigenous #FirstNations. In particular, the #Haida & #Kwakwakawakw & #Pacheedaht #FirstPeoples have several documented stories involving barnacles, including food prep recorded histories.

Barnacles are #ancient and can be dated to the middle of Cambrian period of Paleozoic because of Burgess Shale deposits in #BritishColumbia. They're #hermaphroditic #MarineAnimals.

🚨 For #American #Science Peeps! 🤩

#USPS has new #stamps!

Twenty different images of #microscopic #photography, including #RedBloodCells, #Macaw #feathers, legs of #barnacles, #mouse #neurons and more! 🔬

I'm tempted to get them just for decoration. 😄

They are #ForeverStamps, always equivalent to the current first-class-mail one oz price.

As the world warms, animals living near the coast are facing stronger storms, rising seas, and extreme temperatures. While many can swim, fly, or scuttle away, some marine creatures can barely move, let alone make a speedy escape.
