Description
Polycarpa procera (Sluiter, 1885)
Styela procera Sluiter, 1885: 196.
Polycarpa procera: Kott, 1985: 196 and synonymy.
Distribution. New records: Queensland (Moreton Bay, QM G308546). The known range of the species (previously recorded from Maroochydore and Hervey Bay) is extended south to Moreton Bay.
Remarks. Aggregates of individuals were taken at 5 m on the sides of a rocky reef at Moreton I. They are fixed to each other by short, narrow stolons at the posterior ends of the long narrow bodies and sometimes by connectives along the sides and sometimes by both. There is no direct evidence of replication, although the test of adjacent individuals is continuous through the connectives. They are not merely adhering to one other.
