Invasive ascidians: Do local predators play a key role in colonization success?
(Aquatic Ecosystem Health and Management Society, 2016)
Invasive ascidians are usually considered as pests in the invaded areas including aquaculture facilities. Predation might control the establishment and further colonization depending on the habitat and the predator/prey ...
Sessile macro-epibiotic community of solitary ascidians, ecosystem engineers in soft substrates of Potter Cove, Antarctica
(Co-action Publishing, 2015-01)
The muddy bottoms of inner Potter Cove, King George Island (Isla 25 de Mayo), South Shetlands, Antarctica, show a high density and richness of macrobenthic species, particularly ascidians. In other areas, ascidians have ...
Antarctic ascidians under increasing sedimentation: Physiological thresholds and ecosystem hysteresis
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
Glacier melting sediment inputs affect coastal ecosystems on the Antarctic Peninsula. In Potter Cove (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica), the shift from an “ascidian dominated” to a “mixed” assemblage has been linked to ...
When introduced equals invasive: normative use of “invasive” with ascidians
(Springer, 2018-12)
This study aimed to understand the use of “invasive species” as a normative concept and discuss its implications in conservation science, using introduced ascidians worldwide as model species. A specific search in Web of ...

Ascidian-associated polychaetes: ecological implications of aggregation size and tube-building chaetopterids on assemblage structure in the Southeastern Pacific Ocean
(Springer, 2015)
Epifaunal polychaetes inhabit a range of habitat structures built by other organisms, such as ascidians. Here, we examine: i) the polychaete fauna inhabiting aggregations of the ascidian Pyura chilensis in central Chile; ...
