Abstract: 1.The haemolymph of balanomorph barnacles and the tissue of the parasitic barnacle, Sacculina carcini, possess neither haemoglobin nor haemocyanin. 2.Very low levels of copper, 0.02–0.03 μg/ml, were found in the haemolymph, of Balanus hameri. 3.An iron concentration of 5 μg/ml was recorded in B. hameri haemolymph, which is similar to that reported for other crustaceans.
