Magnificent tunicate Botrylloides magnicoecum
From the dive on the weekend, this was at Henry Head just inside Botany Bay heads Tunicates are the most primitive member of the Phylum Chordata which is animals with backbones. As a larvae they briefly possess a notochord or beginnings of a spinal chord before they reabsorb it and settle down on a rock for a life of filter feeding.
