Dear Vicenta,
If you are interested, I can send you some Ciona
intestinalis specimens from the Netherlands (tomorrow
and next weekend I will go diving again). The
sea-water temperature here is around 4'Celcius at the
moment. Therefor the Ciona specimens present are
rather small. If you want to have some, please tell me
how you want me to collect and ship them.
kind regards,
Arjan
