His favorite example was a parasitic barnacle, named the Sacculina, which starts life as a segmented organism with a demarcated head.

The biocide paint tributyltin, known as TBT, protected Shell tankers from accruing algae, barnacles and mussels, but it also caused female murex mollusks to change their gender, impairing their ability to spawn.

Yet this group of arthropods also includes less-than-appetizing barnacles, woodlice, krill and plankton.

Rinse the mussels, scrape the exteriors of any that have little barnacles on them, and pull or cut off any beards.

They resemble the barnacle brant of the Atlantic (Branta barnicla) except in the shape of the head and bill.

And that is the way the old sea-barnacle spent his declining years, dying at the tropic isle on July 16th, 1732.
