Abstract
A diverse cirriped fauna, including the scalpelloids Cretiscalpellum homseyi n. sp., Arcoscalpellum withersi Collins, Arcoscalpellum bakeri Collins, Virgiscalpellum gabbi heintzi n. subsp., Virgiscalpellum sp., V. cf. V. gabbi apertus Collins, and the brachylepadomorph Brachylepas solida n. sp., occurs in the Upper Cretaceous Mt. Laurel Sand at the Biggs Farm locality on the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, New Castle County, Delaware. This fauna represents the Maastrichtian Virgiscalpellum Zone originally identified in the Ripley and Prairie Bluff formations of the eastern Gulf Coast.
