    Genus <i>Latrunculia</i> Du Bocage, 1869 <p> <b>Definition.</b> Latrunculiidae with polygonal large-meshed reticulation formed by wispy tracts of anisostyles. Megascleres are typically smooth and sinuous, occasionally polytylote anisostyles to which terminally spined styles or diactinal spicules may be added. Microscleres are anisodiscorhabds. Aciculoanisodiscorhabds, amphiaster-like microscleres, and acanthomicroxeas are present in one or other of two species. Microscleres are disposed in a palisade in the outer ectosome (Samaai & Kelly, 2002).</p>Published as part of <i>Mothes, Beatriz, Campos, Maurício, Eckert, Rafael & Lerner, Cléa, 2008, Latrunculia (Latrunculia) tetraverticillata sp. nov.

    Timea Gray 1867

    No full text
    Genus Timea Gray, 1867 Diagnosis: Sponges form very thin crusts on shells or under rock. Tylostyles are arranged in tracts ending as bouquets at the sponge surface where they cause a hispid appearance. Additional tylostyles occur in criss­cross fashion between the tracts. Microscleres are euasters, which are dispersed throughout the tissue, denser at the substrate and toward the surface; and are forming an ectosomal crust (Rützler, 2002). Synonymy. Hymedesmia, in part, Bowerbank, 1866: 149; 1874b: 71. Timea Gray, 1867a: 544. Kotimea De Laubenfels, 1936a: 147. Halicometes sensu De Laubenfels, 1950a: 99. Not Halicometes Topsent, 1898: 112. Definition. These sponges are thin, colorful (mostly red) crusts with choanosomal tylostyles arranged in vague tracts, ectosomal tylostyles in bouquet arrangement. Euasters occur throughout the body and form a dense layer at the surface. Species are cryptic and are found in shaded habitats of warm­temperate to tropical shallow­water environments (Rützler, 2002). Type species. Hymedesmia stellata Bowerbank, 1866 (by monotypy).Published as part of Mothes, Beatriz, Santos, Cristina P. & De Campos, Maurício A., 2004, Timea bioxyasterina sp. n., a new species from the Northeastern coast of Brazil (Demospongiae, Hadromerida), pp. 1-8 in Zootaxa 443 (1) on pages 1-8, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.639.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/503001

    Subgenus &lt;i&gt;Latrunculia&lt;/i&gt; Du Bocage, 1869 &lt;p&gt; &lt;b&gt;Definition.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;i&gt;Latrunculia&lt;/i&gt; species in which the anisodiscorhabd microscleres have three whorls of spines around the shaft, a basal whorl above the manubrium, and two whorls of projections, the median and subsidiary whorls, located closer to the apical whorl than to the manubrium (hence the use of the prefix aniso- in anisodiscorhabd). The basal whorl is clearly separated from the manubrium in most species but armours the manubrium in others, making the distinction from the manubrium more difficult (Samaai &lt;i&gt;et al&lt;/i&gt;., 2006).&lt;/p&gt;Published as part of &lt;i&gt;Mothes, Beatriz, Campos, Maurício, Eckert, Rafael &amp; Lerner, Cléa, 2008, Latrunculia (Latrunculia) tetraverticillata sp. nov.
