Fritillariidae Lohmann, 1915 , A class of marine planktonic animals in the subphylum Tunicata. The class Appendicularia (alternatively known as Larvacea) is a species of small pelagic tunicate found in the surface waters of most of the world's oceans. It is used as a model organism in research into developmental biology.Oikopleura dioica is the only species of appendicularian to have separate sexes; others are hermaphrodites. They secrete mucus filtering structures called houses.the house does not completely surround the body in Fritillaria, Phylum‎: ‎Chordata, Class‎: ‎Appendicularia<br />
