Morphological description (show/hide)
| Massive, globular, of about 1.8 to 4.7 cm with one or few large apical oscular with a diameter from 2.4 to 5.5 mm. Large tangential triactines sometimes visible by eye on the sponge surface. | | pinkish or pinkish-white or light purple | | white | | One to several | | Scattered giant triactines and smaller triactines. Tetractines of similar size as the small triactines occur in the wall of presumably exhalant canals, their basal actines tangential to the canal wall, and the apical actine reaching inside the lumen of the canal. | | Large cortical triactines and smaller cortical triactines of size and shape of choanosomal triactines. | | Large cortical triactines: equiangular, equiradiate, with conical, sharp-tipped actines. Smaller cortical triactines of size and shape of choanosomal triactines, which are equiangular and equiradiate, with conical, sharp-tipped actines. Tetractines of canal walls: Equiangular and equiradiate, with conical, sharp-tipped actines, the basal system with slightly shorter actines than the smaller triactines. The apical actines are straight or slightly curved. |
