The most nothern records of the exotic ascidian Perophora japonica Oka, 1927 (Ascidiacea: Perophoridae) in the north-east Atlantic
The northwest Pacific colonial ascidian Perophora japonica Oka, 1927 was first reported from Ireland in 2012 from Carlingford Marina and with increased frequency by 2014. Colonies were found in three additional marine inlets: Strangford Lough in 2012, Mulroy Bay in 2013, and Clew Bay in 2015. Coloni...
