COLONY SPECIFICITY IN THE ASCIDIAN,PEROPHORA SAGAMIENSIS
The Biological Bulletin, 1982 The presence of colony specificity, i.e., fusion-incompatibility, was revealed in Perophora sagamiensis.When two fusible stolons made a tip-to-side contact, a protrusion appeared from the lateral portion of a stolon. The tests and epidermides of both stolons fused and blood exchange was established.

The third way: spermcast mating in sessile marine invertebrates [PDF]
, 2016 Marine invertebrates belonging to a broad range of taxa disperse aquatic spermatozoa to fertilize eggs that are retained rather than spawned. We outline the occurrence of this mechanism, which we refer to as spermcast mating, and identify tentative ...
