Zusammenfassung

Eine bemerkenswerte Abnormität wird von einem adultenChthamalus depressus (Poli), gefunden in der oberen Litoralzone von Rovinj, Jugoslawien, gemeldet. Der cirrentragende Körperabschnitt war verzwillingt, wobei die Cirren selbst am kleineren Teil nur unvollständig entwickelt waren. Das Tier lebte. Frühere Meldungen von Abnormitäten an Cirripediern beziehen sich immer auf Larven unter Experimentierbedingungen.
