ABSTRACT
Stolonic test vessels are described in four members of the ascidian family Didemnidae. The epidermal cells of the terminal swellings of the vessels appear to produce test substance. The stolonic vessels, area of budding and muscular appendix are probably all derived from the posterior end of the ancestral zooid.
