Classification of Ascidians

2016 
The mysterious morphological structure of ascidians was taken into account for classification by various researchers. Herdman (1882) has given a classification of tunicate based upon the external features in relation to gemmation and formation of colonies. Originally the suborders are designated as the orders Aplousobranchia, Phlebobranchia and Stolidobranchia (Lahille 1886) based upon the complexity of the branchial sac.
