| Abstract: | The present study recorded the biodiversity of cirripedes collected in the Philippine Panglao 2005 Expedition, which yielded 20 species in 4 families of stalked barnacles and 3 families in sessile barnacles. All species were described using light microscopy and selected species which received lesser descriptions were studied using scanning electron microscope to illustrate the fine details including the setations of the mouth parts and cirri. The present study identified new Arcoscalpellum and Paralepas species and with new records in the Philippine waters including Teloscalpellum ecaudatum, Trianguloscalpellum diota, Paralepas minuta and Adna anglica. |
