Clavelina moluccensis

Noriyuki Otani Please let me know the name of this sea squirt. They are like Bluebell tunicates. But I feel them little bit different. Size 1 cm in height, and 5 mm in width Photography place Oase, Mie, a Japan. Depth of 20 meters

Blogie Robillo Not sure, but this could be the "light bulb tunicate" (Clavelina lepadiformis).

Noriyuki Otani Thank you. I love delicacy like the glasswork of this sea squirt.

Blogie Robillo Yes, it's very lovely!

Arne Kuilman I associate Clavelina lepadiformis more with the Mediterranean. Clavelina moluccensis is it's South-East Asian cousin (-;

Arne Kuilman Hmm, moluccensis is recognized by 2 particular spots. This might be Clavelina picta then. Also present in Japan.

Noriyuki Otani Thank you. We can see many subtropical marine life in Owase.
