    Here we used Molgula manhattensis, a highly invasive ascidian, as a model to assess its invasion risks along Chinese coasts under climate change. Through population genomics analyses, we identified two genetic clusters, the north and south clusters, based on geographic distributions.
    Molgula manhattensis is native to the East and Gulf coasts of the United States. It was described from Manhattan Island, NY by De Kay in 1843 (De Kay 1843), but it was collected earlier by Gould (in 1841, near Boston), and earlier still by Couthouy (1838) in Massachusetts (Van Name 1912).
    " Molgula " is indicated as a main food source for the opisthobranch Okenia elegans (see Thompson & Brown 1976). However, the species of Molgula is not given and is not believed to be Molgula manhattensis. Molgula manhattensis is preyed upon by the gastropod Anachis avara on the east coast of North America (see, for instance, Osman et al. 1992).
    It also seems (Kott 1976 quoted in Kott 1985) that the eastern Atlantic species may be Molgula tubifera and that Molgula manhattensis occurs on the Atlantic coast of North America from Maine to Lousiana.
    Molgula manhattensis is preyed upon by the gastropod Anachis avara on the east coast of North America (see, for instance, Osman et al. 1992). No records have been found of predation specifically on Molgula manhattensis around Britain and Ireland. Berril, N.J., 1931.
    Molgula manhattensis is small, spherical, brownish-grey in color, somewhat translucent, and feels soft and rubbery to the touch. Like other ascidians, they have two siphons (incurrent and excurrent), through which they draw water for ventilation and filter-feeding, and also for releasing their gametes.
