โฆ Synopsis
A study on the vertical distribution of pelagic tunicates in relation to the water masses in the western part of the Bay of Bengal is made . Their depth distribution has clearly pointed out that while some pelagic tunicates are primarily associated with water conditions similar to those of the Northern Dilute Water and Transition Water, the others were associated with the water conditions similar to those of the Southern Bay of Bengal Water and Upwell Water . The present study supports the observations made earlier on the horizontal and depth distribution of pelagic tunicates in the western part of the Bay of Bengal .
