Tunicate

Ascidiella aspersa (Müller 1776)

Brief Summary

provided by Ecomare
The Ascidiella scabra is a rather robust, usually attached on its side. If you bring it out of the water, it often squirts water, giving it all kinds of appropriate nicknames. This sea squirt can live in large numbers on the hull of boats. However, it is easy to remove using a high-pressure hose.
