Goose Barnacle

order Pedunculata

Description:

Goose barnacles (order Pedunculata), also called stalked barnacles or gooseneck barnacles, are filter-feeding crustaceans that live attached to hard surfaces of rocks and flotsam in the ocean intertidal zone.

Habitat:

We found many of these attached to floating pumice-like rock. It had been washed up all the way along the beach.
