Major revision of barnacle classification with a comprehensive species catalog

This authoritative work reshapes how we understand Balanomorpha, offering a phylogenetically informed framework, a detailed catalog of species, and new higher taxa that reflect recent evidence.

This edition presents three core parts—evolution, systematics, and a complete catalog of species—treating the group in a modern, integrative way. It consolidates historical classifications and adds new lines of evidence from anatomy, development, and rich collections from around the world. The result is a practical, long‑awaited reference for researchers, students, and librarians alike.

Groundbreaking reorganization of higher taxa within the Balanomorpha, including a newly proposed family and multiple subfamilies
An alphabetically arranged catalog of species with original author citations, distribution notes, and key references
Explanations of how to use the catalog and how to navigate between evolutionary, systematic, and catalog sections
A broad, bibliographic foundation drawing from extensive literature and museum collections

Ideal for readers who need a reliable, up‑to‑date reference on barnacles, their classification, and their global distribution.
