Handbook of Marine Model Organisms in Experimental Biology, 2021 Poriferans (sponges) are sessile aquatic (largely marine) animals that are found in almost all benthic habitats. There are an estimated 15,000 species living today, although many have not been described (reviewed in Hooper and Van Soest 2002). The sponge body plan is amongst the simplest in the animal kingdom and lacks nerve and muscle cells and a ...

Thorp and Covich's Freshwater Invertebrates, 2019
Freshwater sponges, at present considered monophyletic, belong to the suborder Spongillina (Demospongiae, Haplosclerida) and date back to Paleozoic and Mesozoic. Spongillina consists of seven families containing 47 genera, and 238 species with a geographic range from widespread to sensu stricto endemic. Growth form varies from encrusting to massive and

Every sponge its own name: removing Porifera homonyms.
Zootaxa, 2020The occurrence of different sponge species bearing the same Linnean binomial name combination, i.e. homonyms, is to be avoided for obvious reasons. In a review of sponge taxon names of the World Porifera Database, we detected 121 homonymic cases (115 ...

Zootaxa, 2020
Porifera has been relatively well studied from underwater caves worldwide. However, sponges in Mexico are only known from two anchialine caves: La Quebrada and El Aerolito, both in Cozumel Island.

Calcareous sponges from the French Polynesia (Porifera: Calcarea).
Zootaxa, 2020Although the French Polynesian reefs are among the most well studied reefs of the world, sponges are still poorly known, with only 199 species or OTUs of sponges having been described from French Polynesia, 167 at an OTU level and 32 at a species level ...

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2004
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) catalytic activity was measured in aqueous extracts of 83 freeze-dried specimens representing 55 marine sponge species collected from the east coast of Australia including the Great Barrier Reef. High levels (>500 u/l) of PLA2 activity (defined as the amount of activity that releases 1 micromol of fatty acid per min) were found ...

Publisher Summary Sponges are the simplest of the multicellular phyla. They lack organs, and tissues are their highest level of organization. Specialized cells accomplish many basic biological functions in sponges. Despite their simplicity, however, sponges display a variety of elegant adaptations to freshwater habitats including a strong capacity for
