Robert Sandler tells the story of doliolid reproduction. The video was made with paper puppets and hand-drawn animations. Robert made this episode with support from the Society of Royce Fellows.The music is adapted from "Aux puces nº4 - Noctambule" by Circus Marcus, available at freemusicarchive.org/music/CIRCUSMARCUS/Aux_puces/Circus_Marcus_Aux_puces_n4_NoctambuleVisit creaturecast.org for more stories about the unexpected world of Biology.

During the season of upwelling these pelagic tunicates, salps, may be swept into the outer bay filtering plankton as they swim. Tunicates, our cousins, are in the Phylum Chordata. This is the solitary phase; the ropelike chain is the cloned, sexual, aggregate phase that later will be extruded, often several hundred individuals.

Description: Large pelagic colonial tunicate, can be as long as 10-20m. Pyrosomas are characteristcally open at one end and form a point at the other. Unable to identifiy this species of Pyrosoma from these images but this example bears quite a close similarity to Pyrosoma spinosum which is found in the Gulf of Mexico. Item Type: Image Title: Pyrosoma sp. Copyright: SERPENT project Species: Pyrosoma sp. Behaviour: Suspended in the water column Site: Atlantic -- South Atlantic -- Block 31 Site Description: Midwater Depth (m): 856.08 Latitude: 6 deg 12' 21" S Longitude: 13 deg 43' 07" W Countries: West Africa -- Angola Rig: Seven Seas Project Partners: BP, Subsea 7 Deposited By: Miss Moira MacLean Deposited On: 09 December 2010
