Abstract
Despite extensive studies on settlement of the cypris larva of Balanus amphitrite amphitrite Darwin (Crustacea: Cirripedia), the fine struct ure of the putative settlement receptors of this species has not been described. This study presents observations made with the scanning ele ctron microscope of the fourth antennular segment and its associated s etae.
