Info

Lissoclinum patella (Gottschaldt, 1898)

Lissoclinum patella is a species of ascidian in the family Didemnidae. Its green hue is due to the colonies of cyanobacteria (Prochloron patella) that grow within its tissue as symbionts.

The biochemical products of its cyanobacteria is an active area of research, as example the circular peptide, Patellamide A.
