Size · not on record: no authority the fetcher reads carries a length for this taxon (a genus page could show the range of its species).
A salp or salpa is a barrel-shaped, planktonic tunicate in the family Salpidae. The salp moves by contracting its gelatinous body in order to pump water through it; it is one of the most efficient examples of jet propulsion in the animal kingdom.W CalCOFI holds 2,684 observations of it in 2 datasets between 1951 and 2026.R

One row per dataset, one cell per year, darker with more observations — the same strip the front
door draws per dataset. Each row ends with the name that dataset uses (dataset_taxon);
the accepted name is written once, in the title above. A quiet pill marks a name the authority does not accept.
