Molgula Brieni
''Molgula'', or sea grapes, are very common, globular, individual marine tunicates roughly the size of grapes.Sanamyan, K.; Monniot, C. (2012). Molgula Forbes, 1848.

Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=103509 on 2012-02-26 They are translucent with two protruding siphons. 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 ...

Tunicate
A tunicate is a marine invertebrate animal, a member of the subphylum Tunicata (). It is part of the Chordata, a phylum which includes all animals with dorsal nerve cords and notochords (including vertebrates). The subphylum was at one time called Urochordata, and the term urochordates is still sometimes used for these animals. They are the only chordates that have lost their myomeric segmentation, with the possible exception of the 'seriation of the gill slits'. Some tunicates live as solitary individuals, but others replicate by budding and become colonies, each unit being known as a zooid. They are marine filter feeders with a water-filled, sac-like body structure and two tubular openings, known as siphons, through which they draw in and expel water. During their respiration and feeding, they take in water through the incurrent (or inhalant) siphon and expel the filtered water through the excurrent (or exhalant) siphon. Most adult tunicates are sessile, immobile and perman ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Molgula Citrina
''Molgula citrina'' is a species of solitary tunicate in the family Molgulidae. It is found on both sides of the northern Atlantic Ocean and in the Arctic Ocean. In 2008 it was found in Kachemak Bay in Alaska, the first time it had been detected in the Pacific Ocean. Description ''Molgula citrina'' takes the form of a globular or ovoid sac and can grow to a diameter of . The tunic (outer surface of the sac) is greyish-green and firm, with few particles of sediment adhering to it, and this distinguishes it from many species in this genus. The siphons are widely separated. The buccal siphon, through which water is drawn into the body cavity, has six lobes while the atrial siphon, through which water leaves, is short and has four lobes. About fourteen branched tentacles surround the base of the buccal siphon, and prevent particles that are too large from entering the body cavity. Distribution ''Molgula citrina'' is found in the Arctic Ocean and the northeastern Atlantic Ocean as far ...
