## Abstract Previous work has shown that the anteroposterior axis and the transverse axis of the palleal buds of some botryllid and polystyelid ascidians develop in a predictable manner, depending on the position of the buds on the parental lateral wall. In the present study, three kinds of homople
In the colonial ascidian, Symplegma reptans, the oozooid from which a particular colony has developed always degenerates about 30 days after metamorphosis, while all other zooids of the same colony are vigorous. Furthermore, an irregular type of regeneration, "blastogenic regeneration" (regeneration
## Abstract The test consists of a clear matrix in which cells, fibrils, spicules and vascular tubes are embedded. It is supplied with two main blood vessels which ramify in the test substance and end in a large number of vascular ampullae near the outer surface of the test. Three different kinds o
Tadpole larvae of ascidians have two sensory pigment cells in the brain. One is the otolith cell that functions as a gravity receptor, the other pigment cell is part of a primitive photosensory structure termed the ocellus. These sensory cells, like vertebrate pigment cells, contain membrane-bounded
