  1. subphylum urochordata

    Subphylum Urochordata is a taxonomic group under the phylum Chordata, which includes marine animals commonly known as tunicates, sea squirts or ascidians. These creatures are characterized by a notable larval stage, which exhibits key features of chordates, such as a notochord or a dorsal, hollow nerve cord even though they may lose these characteristics in adulthood. Most urochordates are sessile and benthic as adults, meaning they attach themselves to substrates and live at the bottom of bodies of water. They are filter feeders and have a unique cover made from tunicin, a cellulose-like substance.
