Testing adaptive hypotheses on the evolution of larval life history in acorn and stalked barnacles

Abstract Despite strong selective pressure to optimize larval life history in marine environments, there is a wide diversity with regard to developmental mode, size, and time larvae spend in the plankton. In the present study, we assessed if adaptive hypotheses explain the distribution of the larval...
