Thanks, Henk! News to me.
Getting back to the barnacle, I have found no equivalent to "Moths of Ohio"
on the Web. But there is an older work by one Charles Darwin on the subject
at:
http://pages.britishlibrary.net/charles.darwin4/liv_balanidae/balanidae_fm.h
tml
The names may be a trifle obsolete, but it's not a bad piece of work, not
bad at all; I've used it before. Do bear in mind that ships have carried
barnacles all over the world. If memory serves, one of the common species in
Mobile Bay, Alabama, turned out to be a native of New Zealand waters...
Cheers,
Andy

Don't forget that all the figures and the accompanying texts in Lister
(1685-1692) were engraved in mirror image on copper plates, consequently the
texts had to be very brief. Henk K. Mienis
