We didn’t have much luck at Fishermans Basin, so I suggested that we go to St Helens. Team Ascidian had visited the spot six days earlier while I was crook with Covid. I was really keen to see what species were there to get an idea of what they may have sampled.
This sounds obsessive, and it kinda is. This is the main spot I visit so I’ve gotten to know the types of ascidians that typically reside here. Sometimes I’ll see a weird one that I hope hangs around long enough for someone to get a sample. In the long run, I’m hoping to solve this by collecting my own samples.
