THE ANTARCTIC RESE14RCH SERIES
THE A\T-~RCTIL
RESEARCHSERIESis designed to provide a medium for presenting
authoritati~ereports on the extensile and detailed scientific research work being
carried out in Antarctica. The series lias been successful in eliciting contributions
from leading research scientists engaged in antarctic investigations; it seeks to main-
tain high scientific and publication standards. The scientific editor for each volume
is chosen from among recognized authorities in the discipline or theme it represents,
as are the reviewers on whom the editor relies for advice.
Eeginning uith the scientific investigations carried out during the International
Geophysical Year, reports of research results appearing in this series represent origi-
nal contributions too lengthy or other~+iseinappropriate for publication in the
standard journals. In some cases an entire volume is devoted to a monograph. The
material published is directed not only to specialists actively engaged in the ~ + o r but
k
to graduate students, to scientists in closely related fields, and to interested laymen
versed in the biological and the physical sciences. Many of the earlier volumes are
cohesive collections of papers grouped around a central theme. Future volumes may
concern themselves with regional as well as disciplinary aspects. or 1% ith a comparison
of antarctic phenomena ~ + i t hthose of other regions of the globe. But the central
theme of Antarctica nil1 dominate.
In a sense, the series continues the tradition dating from the earliest days of
geographic exploration and scientific expeditions-the tradition of the expeditionary
volumes which set forth in detail everything that Nas seen and studied. This tradi-
tion is not necessarily outmoded, but in much of the present scientific mork one
expedition blends into the next, and it is no longer scientifically meaningful to
separate them arbitrarily. Antarctic research has a large degree of coherence; it
deserves the modern counterpart of the expeditionary volumes of past decades and
centuries which the Antarctic Research Series provides.
With the aid of a grant from the Eational Science Foundation in 1962, the
American Geophysical Union initiated the Antarctic Research Series and appointed
a Board of Associate Editors to implement it. A supplemental grant received in 1966,
the income from the sale of volumes in the series, and income from reprints and
other sources have enabled the AGU to continue this series. The response of the
scientific community and the favorable comments of reviewers cause the Board to
look for^+-ard with optimism to the continued success of this endeavor.
To represent the broad scientific nature of the series, the members of the Board
were chosen from all fields of antarctic research. At the present time they include:
Eugene L. Boudette, representing geology and solid Earth geophysics; A. P. Crary,
seismology and glaciology; George A. Llano, botany and zoology; Martin A. Pome-
rantz, aeronomy and geomagnetism; Morton J. Rubin. meteorology; Waldo L. Schmitt,
marine biology and oceanography; and Laurence M. Gould, honorary chairman.
Fred G. Alberts, secretary to the U. S. Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names,
gives valuable assistance in verifying place names, locations, and maps. AGU staff
members responsible for the series are: Judith S. McCombs, managing editor. and
Jane Bruce, style editor.

PREFACE
THIS IS THE FIRST ATTEMPT to bring together what is known of the antarctic cirriped
fauna in one comprehensive treatise. It covers the systematics of the barnacles of
subantarctic and antarctic regions and their distribution, both recent and paleonto-
logical. A second part already in preparation will report on planktonic larvae.
Antarctic Cirripedia, the second monographic contribution in the Antarctic Re-
search Series, generally follows the pattern set by Kott7sAntarctic Ascidiacea (1969).
The study, as far as possible, covers all records made by previous expeditions to Ant-
arctic waters and culminates in this volume with the 1962-1965 cruises of USNS
Eltanin. The list of the principal vessels which have brought back cirriped materials
from antarctic regions is a notable one: Aurora, Belgica, Challenger, Discovery, En-
deavour, Ob', Pourquoi-Pas?, SGya, Terra Nova, Umitaka-Maru and William Scoresby.
Yet the number of benthic samplings of cirripeds made by Eltanin under the United
States Antarctic Research Program from south of the Antarctic Convergence exceeds
the total of those returned by all earlier expeditions.
In accordance with procedures established under the U.S. Antarctic Research
Program, biological materials from terrestrial and marine activities forwarded to the
Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center are made available to qualified individuals
recommended by the Advisory Committees for distribution of specimens to specialists.
William A. Newman of the University of California, San Diego, was the specialist
entrusted with the Eltanin cirriped collections in 1966. He was joined by Arnold
Ross, Natural History Museum of San Diego, California, as junior author.
Altogether, Newman and Ross have examined 85 species, 29 genera, and 9 families
of cirripeds. Of these 20 species, 9 genera and 1 family are described as new. The
text is illustrated by 48 plates, 90 text-figures, 11 charts, and 3 tables. All the Cirri-
pedia from the Antarctic are figured and described with keys to each; charts are used
to show their present geographical distribution. Paleogeographical and biogeographi-
cal aspects of the antarctic cirriped fauna are discussed in context with related forms
throughout the world. The report includes the extraordinary discoveries of a new
gigantic, sessile barnacle, the deepest balanomorphan known, and the first deep-water
acrothoracican; the remarkably complex and uniquely constructed shell walls of the
former are illustrated in three color plates.

by widely flaring the apertural end in the manner so


characteristic of the species (pl. XV A-C). Tetra-
chaelasma, found at great depths immediately north
of the Antarctic Convergence, does not take on the
corolliform growth pattern and requires broad sur-
faces on which to grow (pl. XXVI). Its North Atlantic
counterpart, Bathylasma hirsuturn, likewise limited by
the nature of the substratum, has a comparable growth
form (pl. XXIII) .
The basic life cycle of acrothoracican and thoraci-
can cirripeds includes eggs brooded in the mantle
cavity of the adult, six planktonic naupliar stages, and
the cyprid larva. Species in which the naupliar stages
are passed through in the egg brooded in the mantle
cavity are much more limited in their ability to dis-
perse than species with planktonic nauplii. The cyprid
stage selects the settling site and attaches, and under-
goes metamorphosis into the juvenile; however, it is
a weak swimmer and cannot feed. Thus it is not gen-
erally involved in dispersal.
The antarctic acrothoracican Cryptophialus occurs
in relatively shallow water (to 600 meters) and re-
leases eyed, virtually nonswimming cyprid larvae,
comparable to those known for the New Zealand spe-
cies (Batham and Tomlinson, 1965). This, no doubt,
does much in explaining the restricted distributions of
species of this genus, hut not necessarily other gen-
era of the order.
As far as can be determined, all scalpellids in the
Antarctic have separate sexes (females accompanied
by dwarf males), brood their young, and release ad-
vanced nonfeeding cyprids-as would be expected of
deep-sea or high latitude species. The release of a non-
feeding larva of limited dispersal potential and the
past and present oceanic conditions surrounding the
Antarctic probably account for the high degree of en-
demism to be taken up shortly. While there is pres-

In each of these species the inframedian latus is
shorter than the adjoining margin of the carinal latus,
which is higher than wide, the rostra1 latus is as high
as or higher than wide, and the plates are ornamented
with both growth and radial ridges. The unusual horn-
shaped rostrum of A. buccinum separates it from A.

"The tergum is triangular. The occludent margin
is much arched, hence the apex is distinctly recurved.
The inferior part is a little produced.
"The carina is bowed and internally concave; the
portion above the umbo is very short and not more
than one-sixth of the total length. Since the roof is
slightly convex, the sides of the carina pass over into
the portion above the umbo.
"The upper latus is trapeziform, with the scutal mar-
gin slightly hollowed out and not quite twice as long
as the carinal margin. The apex is sharply pointed.
"The rostrum is small, triangular, wedge-shaped.
"The rostra1 latus is convex, four-sided, with the
scutal and basal margins almost parallel and slightly
hollowed out.
"The infra-median latus is extremely small, triangu-
lar, with the umbo at the apex.
"The carinal latus is flat, four-sided; basal margin
nearly straight. Superior portion of the carinal margin
slightly hollowed out, inferior portion short, lateral
margin straight. The umbo is seated at the base of the
carina and projects slightly outwards.

Growth lines of the paries stand as low, thin eleva-


tions spaced a millimeter or so apart, with minute
growth ridges between, and do not correlate with the
growth lines on the exterior of the alae (pl. XXXV
A-D). Alar growth lines are all of one type, run
parallel to the inferior alar margin for a short distance
and then diverge widely from the inferior alar mar-
gin before bending at an abrupt angle downwards
towards the alar angle. There is an abrupt change
again in the alar growth lines at the superior alar
margin forming a thin but relatively rough welting
of downward directed growth ridges, which may also
be seen from the interior along the margin of the
sheath. In this species, the welting clearly forms a
functional element of the wall. The superior alar angle
abuts against the margin of the sheath essentially as a
point; that is, there is very little contact between the

APPENDIX 5. Bathymetric Distribution for Sampling Devices Used during Eltanin Expeditions Covered in This Report
Under each type of gear the three columns list, from left to right, number of attempts at depth given, total hours on
bottom, and number of species recovered. Parentheses enclose data from south of the Antarctic Convergence, extracted from
the unparenthesized totals for each depth interval. Species counts given in totals, with depth or within a depth interval, are
accumulative and therefore do not indicate number of species present (cf. Table 2).

PLATE LEGENDS

Plate I A. Scalpellid harnacles (indicated hy long arrows) ant1 anerriones (one indicatcd hy upper short arrow), growing on
sten1 of whip coral (lowc-r short arrow), inhahiting apparently firm irregular bottom covered l ~ yfine sediments marked
by animal tracks in the vicinity of thr organisrris, autl scatterrtl rocks. 3493 meters, off South Shetland Islands (Ellanin
Cruise 6, Jan. 7, 1963, Sta. 41, Camera Sta. 41 ( 3 6 ) , 1;rame 10, 5&"93'30"'S, 59"08'W).

1J. Scalpellid barnacles (horizontal long arrows) growing on arborescent organisms inhahiting soft hottom marked hy
fecal casts (vertical short arrows), anirnal tracks and trails, and burrows indicated by mounds. An elasipod sea eucurl~ber
(lower horizontal short arrow) appears hrading towards clump of I,arnaclrs, and brittle starfish (upper short arrow)
seen holding arms abovc the substratum and prcsurnahly fccding in a gentle current. 4773 meters, off South Shetland
Islands (Ellanin Cruise 4, August 2, 1962, Caliirru Sta. 8, Frame 21, 61°41'S, 6l01O'W).

Plate I1 A. Numerous scalpellid 1,nrnaclcs (several groups indicated by long arrows), anemones (several indicated hy short

inhahiting nearly sediment-free volcanic rock. 2377 rnelers, off South Sandwich Islands.

B. Same situation and faunal complex as A. Note scalpellids growing along depressions in rocks much as do forms
living in high energy environments (examples indicated by oblique long arrows). Individual barnaclrs (horizontal long
arrows) appear leaning and extending cirral nets to the left, anti tentacles on the right side of the anemone (short
arrow directed downward) appear similarly oriented, suggesting a current progressing from left to right, carrying sedi-
ments and food with it. 2377 meters, off South Sandwich Islands (Eltanin Cruise 22, Feb. 17, 1966, Sta. 29, Camera Sta. 18,
