      Pyrosomes are colonial tunicates belonging to the genus Pyrosoma. Their name comes from the Greek pyro (“fire”) and soma (“body”), which refers to their bioluminescence. Other common names include sea pickles, sea worms, sea squirts, fire salps, fire bodies, and cockroaches of the sea.
      The order Pyrosomida belongs to the Class Thaliacea, along with Doliolida and Salpida, and contains two subfamilies (Pyrostremmatinae and Pyrosomatinae) that together encompass three genera and eight species (Table 1; Van Soest 1981; Govindarajan et al. 2011 ).
      Notably, scientists have reassigned the giant pyrosome (formerly Pyrosoma spinosum) to the genus Pyrostremma as the giant fire salp (Pyrostremma spinosum). A number of other former Pyrosoma species have undergone a similar process. Pyrosomes are gelatinous, tubular organisms with bumpy outer surfaces.
      They provide vital biological substrates for other species in need of shelter and food. Pyrosomes are omnivorous filter-feeders with an extremely limited diet. However, they themselves provide an important food source for a variety of predators.
