• The colonial ascidian Didemnum sp. A: Current distribution, basic biology and potential threat to marine communities of the northeast and west coasts of North America (2007, result): “Coutts (2002) also noted that in New Zealand some D. vexillum colony pieces that fell off the bottom of a barge were able to colonize hard substrata.”
• Genetic conspecificity of the worldwide populations of Didemnum vexillum Kott, 2002. (2009, methodology): “This suggests that all three species are, in fact, a single species, particularly given that the published descriptions of D. vexillum and D. vestum overlap to a large extent and that D. vestum was described from poorly preserved colonies that contained no larvae (Kott 2002, 2004).”
• Adventures of a sea squirt sleuth: unraveling the identity of Didemnum vexillum, a global ascidian invader (2009, methodology): “It was subsequently described as a new species, Didemnum vexillum, by Kott (2002), who declared it native to New Zealand rather than an introduction.”
• BIVALVE AQUACULTURE AND EXOTIC SPECIES: A REVIEW OF ECOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT ISSUES (2007, background): “…vase, violet, and golden star tunicates, respectively), and another species that is fouling bivalve culture sites in British Columbia, Didemnum sp., which has also been reported off the coast of Nova Scotia, eastern Canada, and the northeast coast of the United States (Kott 2002, Kott 2004).”
• Alien species and other notable records from a rapid assessment survey of marinas on the south coast of England (2006, background): “This form is highly invasive on both coasts of North America, where it continues to spread, and may be the species recently described from New Zealand by Kott (2002) as D. vexillum.”
