Direct Development of Golf Ball Sponges, Genus Craniella (Demospongiae, Tetractinellida) From the Northeast Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
Molecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 92, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Among the eight types of development in sponges, the least common and least studied is direct, non‐larval development during viviparity. To supplement our knowledge of this rare type of demosponge development, we present here a description of the embryonic development of four species of the genus Craniella (Demospongiae, order Tetractinellida)

Demospongic Acids Revisited [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2010 The well-known fatty acids with a D5,9 unsaturation system were designated for a long period as demospongic acids, taking into account that they originally occurred in marine Demospongia sponges. However, such acids have also been observed in various marine sources with a large range of chain-lengths (C16–C32) and from some terrestrial plants with ...

A genomic view of the microbiome of coral reef demosponges [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2021 Abstract Sponges underpin the productivity of coral reefs, yet few of their microbial symbionts have been functionally characterised. Here we present an analysis of ~1200 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) spanning seven sponge species and 25 microbial phyla.

Geosciences, 2022 Following the end-Permian crisis, microbialites were ubiquitous worldwide. For instance, Triassic deposits in the Germanic Basin provide a rich record of stromatolites as well as of microbe-metazoan build-ups with nonspicular demosponges.

Molecular biodiversity of Red Sea demosponges [PDF]
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2016 Sponges are important constituents of coral reef ecosystems, including those around the Arabian Peninsula. Despite their importance, our knowledge on demosponge diversity in this area is insufficient to recognize, for example, faunal changes caused by anthropogenic disturbances.

Cytotoxic Compounds of Two Demosponges (Aplysina aerophoba and Spongia sp.) from the Aegean Sea
Biomolecules, 2021 The class of demosponges is the biggest and most diverse of all described sponge species and it is reported to produce a plethora of chemically different metabolites with interesting biological activities.
