Sponging up diversity: Evaluating metabarcoding performance for a taxonomically challenging phylum within a complex cryptobenthic community

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2022
Despite their ecological importance, sponges are often avoided in biodiversity studies and monitoring programs because they are notoriously difficult to identify using morphological or molecular methods. Here, we investigate the metabarcoding performance

Chemotaxonomy of Agelas (Porifera: Demospongiae) [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Systematics and Ecology, 1992
The secondary metabolite content of four different species of Agelas (Porifera) from the West Indies has been studied. All the compounds isolated are already known metabolites whose identification was confirmed by comparison of their spectral properties with those reported in the literature.

Embryo development of Corticium candelabrum (Demospongiae: Homosclerophorida) [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Biology, 2007
Abstract. Corticium candelabrum is a homosclerophorid sponge widespread along the rocky Mediterranean sublittoral. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy were used to describe the gametes and larval development. The species is hermaphroditic. Oocytes and spermatocytes are clearly differentiated in April.
