    Hemioniscus balani is a parasitic isopod that specialises on barnacle ovarian fluid and blocks female reproduction 6, 7, 8. This protandrous isopod infects at least 14 species of hermaphroditic barnacles and has a cosmopolitan distribution 6, 7, 8, 9. Infection occurs when a highly mobile cryptoniscus larva finds an appropriate barnacle.
    Hemioniscus balani, a species of isopod crustacean, is a widespread parasitic castrator of barnacle in the northern Atlantic Ocean. Its range extends from Norway to the Atlantic coast of France, and as far west as Massachusetts.
    The female function-size relationship was mirrored by the relationship between size and parasitism. We suggest parasitism by Hemioniscus balani imposes a cost to female function, reinforcing the lack of investment in female function by the largest individuals. Within the subset of suitable (=female) hosts, infection probability increased with size.
    We investigate an isopod parasite ( Hemioniscus balani) that consumes ovarian fluid, blocking female function of its barnacle host, a simultaneous hermaphrodite. As a hermaphrodite, sex is fluid, and individuals may allocate energy differentially to male versus female reproduction.
