Extracellular suction electrode recordings were used. Ciliary arrest potentials, generated by simultaneous arrest of stigmatal cilia across the branchial basket, were consistently precipitated within 3 min of exposure to conspecific injury fluids. Control fluid cues, including boiled fluid from injured conspecifics, did not provoke a similar response. This suggests that a heat-labile compound - potentially an alarm pheromone - is involved. The species-specific nature of the response constitutes the first evidence produced for alarm signaling in ascidians. This may serve to advance our understanding of both predator - prey interactions in sessile, clonal marine invertebrates and the possible ecological relevance of some of the diverse bioactive metabolites produced by ascidians.},
