    #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.

    The northern #eveningprimrose, #Oenothera #parviflora (#Myrtales), is a #neophyte in #Europe, having been introduced from its original range, eastern #NorthAmerica, since the 17th century. It prefers nutrient-poor, #sandy #soils. S. Greiner & K. Köhl (2014) summarize the current knowledge on Oenothera as a #scientificmodel and #cropplant and discuss optimal #cultivation conditions.
