Meet the veliger larva - a tiny ocean drifter with a delicate shell and two ciliated “velums” that look like fluttering ears. These velums help it swim through plankton and capture food.

Bryozoan coronate larva…or man in the moon?

What are these?
You are looking at embryos of a sea squirt. Each of the 'soap bubbles' is a living cell, about a fourtieth of a millimetre in size. The outlines of the cells are visible thanks to fluorescent markers identified by Hitoyoshi Yasuo @hitoyas.bsky.social
see doi.org/10.1101/2024... 🧵
There are still plenty of Ascidian sea squirt larvae on my plankton samples at the moment. Love them!

🚨 My lab is hiring at all levels!
Interested in animal origins & evolutionary cell biology?
I'm recruiting a postdoc, PhD students & a research assistant to study the molecular evolution of cell adhesion using marine invertebrates + comparative genomics.

🪼 How did the animal body plan evolve?
This ‘fundamental’ study in Clytia sheds light on how Wnt3 coordinates both gene expression and planar cell polarity during axis formation, offering key insights into the origins of morphogenesis.
