Trevathana is a genus of coral barnacles in the family Pyrgomatidae. There are about 11 described species in Trevathana. [1] [2] [3]
These species belong to the genus Trevathana:
Barnacles are a type of arthropod constituting the subclass Cirripedia in the subphylum Crustacea, and are hence related to crabs and lobsters. Barnacles are exclusively marine, and tend to live in shallow and tidal waters, typically in erosive settings. Around 1,000 barnacle species are currently known.
Chthamalus is a genus of barnacles that is found along almost all non-boreal coasts of the northern hemisphere, as well as many regions in the southern hemisphere. These small barnacles have been studied in part because of the taxonomic confusion over a group of species that, by and large, are morphologically and ecologically quite similar. In recent years, molecular techniques have identified a number of cryptic species that have been subsequently confirmed by taxonomists using morphological measurements. Most recently the genus has been shown to be paraphyletic, with the genus Microeuraphia nested within Chthamalus.
Chthamalus stellatus, common name Poli's stellate barnacle, is a species of acorn barnacle common on rocky shores in South West England, Ireland, and Southern Europe. It is named after Giuseppe Saverio Poli.
Astreopora is a genus of stony corals in the Acroporidae family. Members of the genus are commonly known as star corals and there are seventeen species currently recognized.
Chelonibia is a genus of acorn barnacles in the family Chelonibiidae of the subphylum Crustacea. Its members are epizootic and live attached to manatees, turtles, marine molluscs, crabs and horseshoe crabs in all tropical and subtropical oceans. In a few instances, they have been found on sea snakes, alligators and inanimate substrates, but they are not found in the typical habitats of barnacles – on rocks, docks or boats.
Conopea is a genus of barnacle, containing the following species:
Pyrgomatidae is a family of barnacles belonging to the order Balanomorpha.
Perforatus is a genus of acorn barnacles in the family Balanidae. There is one described species in Perforatus, P. perforatus.
Notomegabalanus is a genus of acorn barnacles in the family Balanidae. There are about 12 described species in Notomegabalanus.
Notobalanus is a genus of acorn barnacles in the family Balanidae. There are at least two described species in Notobalanus.
Chirona is a genus of acorn barnacles in the family Balanidae. There are about six described species in Chirona.

Pachylasma is a genus of symmetrical sessile barnacles in the family Pachylasmatidae. There are about eight described species in Pachylasma.
Trevathana synthesysae is a species of coral barnacle in the family Pyrgomatidae.

Parthenopea is a genus of parasitic barnacles in the family Parthenopeidae, the sole genus of the family. There are at least three described species in Parthenopea.
Pirusaccus is a genus of parasitic barnacles in the family Pirusaccidae, the sole genus of the family. There is one described species in Pirusaccus, P. socialis.
Triangulus is a genus of parasitic barnacles in the family Triangulidae, the sole genus of the family. There are at least four described species in Triangulus.
Waikalasma is a genus of symmetrical sessile barnacles in the family Waikalasmatidae, the sole genus of the family. There are at least three described species in Waikalasma.
