Explanation:
Dari definisi Britanica:

sea squirt

Any tunicate in the class Ascidiacea; found in seas worldwide.

Resembling potatoes more than animals, they are permanently fixed to a surface. A forceful contraction of the adult's vaselike body shoots a jet of seawater when it is disturbed. They filter-feed near the shore on debris from dead plants and animals and, in deeper water, on plankton. Adults, from less than 1 in. to 1 ft (2–30 cm) long, have functional male and female reproductive organs. The free-swimming, tadpolelike larvae hatch from eggs shed by one individual and fertilized by another. Some species live individually, others in colonies.

sea squirts
semprotan laut


Language variant: tunikata atau ascidia

Explanation:
squirt = semprotan
Jadi,
sea squirt = semprotan laut
karena memang hewan ini mempunyai dua sifon (pipa) untuk menghisap air/makanan dan mengeluarkan kotorannya.

Berikut ini rujukan yg saya ambil dari:
A National History Guide to Komodo National Park by Arnaz Mehta Erdmann

Ascidians are commonly known as “sea squirts” or “tunicates”.

Ascidia dikenal secara luas sebagai “semprotan laut” atau
“tunikata”.
