    Oikopleura is a urochordate, with an evolutionary position stemming from the base of the vertebrate tree, and is part of the tunicate order of animals that at some point in their life generate an external, protective tunic.
    Like most appendicularians with cosmopolitan distributions, Oikopleura dioica Fol, 1872 is considered a single species worldwide based on morphological features that distinguish them from other appendicularians. Despite their abundance, however, there are still only ~ 70 described appendicularian species, compared to over 2800 ascidian tunicates.
    Oikopleura is specifically an appendicularian tunicate: appendicularians live their entire lives as free-swimming, pelagic individuals, distinguishing them from the other tunicate families, which either metamorphose into sessile, benthic adults or live in pelagic colonies.
    There are about 20 species of Oikopleura. Collectively they are found throughout the world’s oceans. Sizes range from a couple of millimeters in length ( Oikopleura dioica) to nearly a centimeter in length ( Oikopleura longicauda ). Oikopleura has a relatively simple body plan ( Figure 1 ).
