| Note |
Alien species: The origin of Bugula stolonifera is unknown. The species is known worldwide as an exotic species and found on ship hulls. The first European observation dates from 1960 in Great Britain. The species was first observed in Belgium in the Ostend Sluice dock in 1976. It later emerged in the harbours of Ostend and Zeebrugge, and on the groynes of Koksijde. It appears to be resistant to low and changing salinity levels and pollution, whereby it can flourish in harbours. [details] | |||||||||||||
