GenBank accession numbers.
COI gene (MK995342-MK995345), 18S (MK981355).
Diagnosis.
Primary parietal tubes with transverse septa; exterior of shell with longitudinal and horizontal striations; anterior margin of cirrus III without conical denticles, erect hooks below posterior angles of distal articles of rami absent.
Description.
Shell steeply conical, tubular in crowded populations; six parietal plates, smooth, thin, brownish purple externally with longitudinal stripes crosshatched by transverse bands, single row of internal tubes (Fig.
23b
); carina forming a spout-like projection; radii wide, summits oblique, pink-purple; alae with summits oblique; orifice toothed (Fig.
23a-c
); sheath purple with white bands, vesicular; basis calcareous, porous; scutum externally with growth lines prominent, internally with articular ridge high, adductor ridge moderately long; tergum with spur furrow, externally purple, margins white, spur pointed, basal margin deeply excavated on either side of spur, depressor muscle crests prominent(Fig.
23d, e
); cirrus III without conical denticles on anterior margin (Fig.
23h
); maxilla without notch (Fig.
23l
), mandible with four teeth (Fig.
23n
), labrum notched, denticulate (Fig.
23o
); penis with basidorsal point, with two apical setae (Fig.
23p
). Basal length (8.3-11.8 mm, basal width 6.9-10.4 mm, height 4.3-8.4 mm; orifice length 4.8-11.8 mm; orifice width 3.4-5.3 mm (measurements for ten specimens are presented in Suppl. material 1: Table S22).

Distribution.
Amphibalanus variegatus
has been reported from the Indo-west Pacific: Bay of Bengal; Sumatra; New Zealand, Australia; Indonesia; Singapore; Vietnam; Gulf of Siam; Hong Kong; W Kyushu; Vladivostok; and is a common fouling species (
Henry and McLaughlin 1975
;
Jones and Hosie 2016
). In this study,
A. variegatus
was found on the islands of Ambon (at Waitatiri) and Saparua (at Teluk Saparua) on stones and a plastic bag (a map with the occurrence of
Amphibalanus variegatus
in the Moluccas is shown in Suppl. material 1: Fig. S4).
Remarks.
Amphibalanus variegatus
is a member of the
Balanus amphitrite
complex, whose members can be difficult to distinguish morphologically.
Amphibalanus variegatus
can be differentiated by its vesicular sheath, and from
A. reticulatus
by features of the tergum, armature of cirrus II and the lack of erect teeth below the posterior distal angles of cirri III-VI (
Henry and McLaughlin 1975
).
