This article mentions Balanus balanoides as a member of this genus, but it has been reclassified as Semibalanus balanoides. I edited it to make this clear, but it probably should just be deleted from the list.

[edit] Trouble with Russian version

Since the Russian article on Balanus has been listed as a good article, it could be translated and used here. I know Russian and can translate the article. The only problem is that since Russian Wikipedia does not have a separate article on barnacles, the writer(s) decided to mention as much facts as possible that apply not just to the genus Balanus, but most other barnacles. Therefore, if I were to translate the Russian article, it will most likely have to be merged with Barnacle. --Crustaceanguy(t/co/cw)19:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Try to do the best you can. Add whatever is possible to Balanus and the rest to barnacle (Cirripedia). JoJan 20:40, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
