Dendrodoa Grossularia
''Dendrodoa grossularia'' is a species of tunicate or sea squirt in the family Styelidae, commonly known as the baked bean ascidian. It is native to the northeastern Atlantic Ocean where it is common in shallow water and on the lower shore in exposed rocky sites. Description ''Dendrodoa grossularia'' is sometimes known as the sea currant because of its small, red, globular form. It usually grows in aggregations, forming mats across the rock surface, but occasionally occurs as individual zooids. When crowded together, the zooids are cylindrical, tall and half as wide. Each individual has the two circular siphons near the apex, the buccal siphon being slightly larger than the exhalent siphon. The tunic is smooth, translucent and of fairly firm consistency, and the siphons tend to be a more intense colour than the rest of the tunic. Solitary individuals are smaller, depressed and unnoticeable. The tunic often has sand or silt deposited on it and sometimes supports epibionts. This sp ...

Asterocarpa Humilis
''Asterocarpa humilis'' is a species of ascidian tunicate first described in 1878 as ''Styela humilis'' by Camill Heller. They are a sessile, subtropical species found in depths up to 26m, in the Indo-Pacificm and the temperate seas of Australia: New Zealand, Chile and South Africa. As a member of the class Ascidiacea, the species is hermaphroditic allowing both cross- and self-fertilization. The eggs develop into larva before metamorphosis into benthic adults.

Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...

Ascidiacea
Ascidiacea, commonly known as the ascidians or sea squirts, is a paraphyletic class in the subphylum Tunicata of sac-like marine invertebrate filter feeders. Ascidians are characterized by a tough outer test or "tunic" made of the polysaccharide cellulose. Ascidians are found all over the world, usually in shallow water with salinities over 2.5%. While members of the Thaliacea (salps, doliolids and pyrosomes) and Appendicularia (larvaceans) swim freely like plankton, sea squirts are sessile animals after their larval phase: they then remain firmly attached to their substratum, such as rocks and shells. There are 2,300 species of ascidians and three main types: solitary ascidians, social ascidians that form clumped communities by attaching at their bases, and compound ascidians that consist of many small individuals (each individual is called a zooid) forming large colonies. Sea squirts feed by taking in water through a tube, the oral siphon. The water enters the mouth and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
