Balanoid barnacles from the Miocene of the Alaska Peninsula, and their relevance to the extant boreal barnacle fauna
The barnacle fauna of the Miocene Bear Lake Formation of the Alaska Peninsula includes Chirona ( Chirona ) alaskana n. sp., and three species of Balanus Da Costa conspecific with or related to the extant species Balanus balanus (Linnaeus), B. nubilus Darwin, and B. crenatus (Bruguière). Although the...
