Abstract
Elminius modestuscyprids settle readily in contact with adult barnacles in the field, and do not discriminate between conspecific and alien adults. This settlement strategy is contrasted with that previously shown to be employed byBalanus balanoides.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
