  1. urochordate

    Urochordate, also known as tunicates or sea squirts, is a subphylum of chordates that comprises marine invertebrate animals. They are characterized by a tough outer covering called a tunic and a notochord (a flexible, rod-shaped body part) during early stages of their life, which in the majority of species disappears by the time they mature. Some common forms include sea squirts, larvaceans, and salps, many of which are filter feeders.
