Ibla

Genus of barnacles From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ibla is a genus of barnacle.[1] In 1848, Charles Darwin studied the genus and found species with hermaphrodites and tiny males.[2] In this genus the number of androdioecious species is uncertain because some authors use the words female and hermaphrodite interchangeably.[3]
