It is a colonial sea squirt from the family Polyclinidae. Aplidium tabarquense is a Mediterranean endemic species. In 1991 Ramos-Esplá documented this species from the littoral zone of the Iberian Peninsula (Island of Tabarca) as new for science and as the first record for the Mediterranean, respectively.
