They are found subtidally, attached to slow-moving submerged objects or organisms. All species of ''Molgula'' have a fluid-filled structure called the renal sac. The renal sac contains nitrogenous wastes, solid concretions composed of weddellite and calcite, and an apicomplexan symbiont called ''Nephromyces.'' In the western Atlantic Ocean, they range from the Arctic to North Carolina, to the center of the United States Eastern Seaboard. Species * ''Molgula aidae'' Oka, 1914 * ''Molgu ...
