Ecteinascidia turbinata

''Ecteinascidia turbinata'', the mangrove tunicate, is a sea squirt species in the genus ''Ecteinascidia'', which was described to science in 1880 by William Abbott Herdman. The cancer drug trabectedin is isolated from ''E. turbinata''.
==Description==
''Ecteinascidia turbinata'' is a colonial sea squirt. The individual zooids can grow to a height of and are shaped like wide-necked bottles. They are connected by a stolon at the base through which blood circulates between the zooids and which serves to attach the colony to the substrate. The walls of the zooids are known as tunics and are strengthened with cellulose, which is unusual for an animal. They are connected to the outside water by siphons. The walls of the tunic are translucent and the pharyngeal basket can be seen through them. The siphon margins are orange because of the deposition of carotenoids there. This is a warning colour, for ''E. turbinata'' is distasteful, and deters predators. Colonies can reach a width of .〔(''Ecteinascidia turbinata'' - Mangrove tunicate ) Smithsonian Marine Station at Fort Pierce. Retrieved 2012-04-06.〕
