Info

Tricellaria inopinata d'Hondt & Occhipinti Ambrogi, 1985

Bryozoans are also called bryozoa or polyzoa. They are multicellular animals that live in water. Bryozoans are usually microscopically small, so that only colonies are noticeable to the observer.

The original distribution area of Tricellaria inopinata extends around the Pacific coast of North America. Tricellaria inopinata came to Europe through sea transportation on ships' hulls and via the import of seafood. These bryozoans were first found in Belgian waters in 2000. In the meantime, colonies of these bryozoans have become firmly established in European ports.
