Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the cyprid of Amphibalanus amphitrite (Cirripedia, Crustacea)
Neuroscience Letters, 2013 The Amphibalanus amphitrite barnacle is a sessile marine crustacean and a major constituent of benthic as well as intertidal communities. A. amphitrite is also an important component of biofouling on artificial substrates. The role of nitric oxide (NO) was recently observed in the settlement of this species.

A multi-endpoints bioassay with Amphibalanus amphitrite larvae as a tool in ecotoxicology studies
, 2010 In recent years massive efforts have been directed to identify ecologically relevant invertebrate toxicity testing models. The crustacean Amphibalanus amphitrite represent a valid model for ecotoxicology studies, as it is widely distributed, ecologically relevant and its larvae can be easily obtained and reared in laboratory.

Quantifying the exploratory behaviour ofAmphibalanus amphitritecyprids
Biofouling, 2009The behavioural response of cypris larvae from A. amphitrite (=Balanus amphitrite) exploring three model glass surfaces is quantified by close-range microscopy. Step length and step duration measurements reveal a response to both surface properties and flow.

Base plate mechanics of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite (= Amphibalanu s amphitrite)
Biofouling, 2008The mechanical properties of barnacle base plates were measured using a punch test apparatus, with the purpose of examining the effect that the base plate flexural rigidity may have on adhesion mechanics. Base plate compliance was measured for 43 Balanus amphitrite (=Amphibalanus amphitrite) barnacles.

Barnacles are notorious marine fouling organisms. Their successful attachment to a substrate requires that they search for an appropriate habitat during their cyprid stage. A chemical cue called SIPC (Settlement-Inducing Protein Complex) has been shown to play a key role in the induction of cyprid gregarious settlement; however, the underlying ...

Surface exploration ofAmphibalanus amphitritecyprids on microtextured surfaces
Biofouling, 2011Microtopography is one of several strategies used by marine organisms to inhibit colonization by fouling organisms. While replicates of natural microtextures discourage settlement, details of larval interactions with the structured surfaces remain scarce.

AbstractThe acorn barnacle Balanus amphitrite is a marine crustacean with six nauplius and one cyprid larval stages and a sessile adult, that represent one of the main constituents of sea biofouling. The cyprid is the last larval stage, specialized for settlement, and the study of its biology is interesting also in the frame of antifouling strategies ...

Pollution from plastic waste is increasingly prevalent in the environment and beginning to generate significant adverse impact on the health of living organisms. In this study, we investigate the toxicity of polymer nanoparticles exposed to Acorn Barnacle (Amphibalanus amphitrite) nauplii, as an animal model.

The scientific names of living organisms can and do sometimes change. Such changes generally reflect advances in knowledge of the relationships of species and/or higher taxa. The new name, Amphibalanus amphitrite (subfamily Amphibalaninae), for a well-known fouling barnacle previously known as Balanus amphitrite (subfamily Balaninae), was proposed in ...
