{a} having tunics or covers lying over each other
adj. Any of some 2,000 species (chordate subphylum Tunicata, or Urochordata) of small marine invertebrates that are abundant worldwide. Tunicates are either sessile (permanently attached), free-swimming, or planktonic (floating). The name tunicate derives from a secreted protective covering (the tunic) containing cellulose. Floating species often form colonies that may be 13 ft (4 m) long. Some free-swimming species are too small to see. Adults filter feed on microorganisms. Sessile forms growing on ships' hulls may be a nuisance, but some species are pharmaceutically useful. See also sea squirt
Covered with a tunic; covered or coated with layers; as, a tunicated bulb
primitive marine animal having a saclike unsegmented body and a urochord (a notochord) conspicuous in the larva
Having each joint buried in the preceding funnel- shaped one, as in certain antennæ of insects
One of the Tunicata
Having a tunic, or mantle; of or pertaining to the Tunicata
