In order to induce metamorphosis in cyprids of the parasitic barnacle Loxothylacus panopaei (Gissler) (Cirripedia: Rhizocephala: Kentrogonida), we tested a number of compounds (ZR-512, 20-hydroxyecdysone, 3-isobutyl-l-methylxanthine and phorbol-12,13- dibutyrate) all known to cause metamorphosis in thoracican barnacles. Only one agent, phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate, had an effect and induced cypris larvae to complete metamorphosis without previous attachment. This suggests that diacylglycerol-activated protein kinase C plays a role in the metamorphosis of kentrogonid rhizocephalans.Rhizocephalans are highly specialized crustaceans adapted for parasitic life on decapods. The juvenile parasite passes through an internal growth stage, where a root-like trophic organ invades the tissue and haemocoelic fluid of the host (for detailed information on rhizocephalan life history, see Haeg, 1992). As in free-living barnacles, a cyprid larva is the settling stage, and in thoracicans a juvenile barnacle is formed underneath the carapace of the cyprid larva. However, the rhizocephalans develop a so-called kentrogon, which accomplishes the injection of the primordial parasite (Glenner & Høeg, 1995). The degree of specialization towards a specific host means that the cypris larvae of rhizocephalans are extremely selective in their choice of substrata. They will not settle unless a specific host or part of a host, e.g. the gills, is offered. For this reason, the study of settlement and metamorphosis of these species has met with great difficulties.
