''Pyura praeputialis'' is an intertidal and shallow water species of tunicate. It is one of three species of "cunjevoi" in Australasia (the other two being the yellow cunjevoi ''P. dalbyi'' and the doppelganger cunjevoi ''P. doppelgangera''). It is the first reported species of marine organism to create a "foam-nest" for its larvae. ==Distribution== ''Pyura praeputialis'' is common in coastal areas of the Australian mainland and ranges from southern Queensland to Cape Otway in Victoria. It is a non-indigenous species in Antofagasta, Chile.〔Rius, M. and Teske, P.R. (2011) A revision of the ''Pyura stolonifera'' species complex (Tunicata, Ascidiacea), with a description of a new species from Australia. Zootaxa 2754: 27-40 ISSN1175-5334; article available at: http://www.mapress.com/zootaxa/2011/f/zt02754p040.pdf〕 This species is an ecosystem engineer that can drastically alter habitats by overgrowing other sessile marine invertebrates. This makes it a likely problem species when introduced to new habitats.
