Clathriidae

	Clathriidae Microcionidae is a family of marine demosponges. Subdivisions The following genera are recognized within the family Microcionidae: * Subfamily Microcioninae Carter 1875 ''Clathria'' Schmidt, 1862 '' Echinochalina'' Thiele, 1903 ''Holopsamma'' Carter, 1885 ''Pandaros'' Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864 * Subfamily Ophlitaspongiinae de Laubenfels, 1936 ''Antho'' Gray, 1867 ''Artemisina'' Vosmaer, 1885 ''Echinoclathria'' Carter, 1885 ''Ophlitaspongia ''Ophlitaspongia'' is a genus of demosponges belonging to the family Microcionidae.

picture info	Genus Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

	Family (biology) Family ( la, familia, plural ') is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". What belongs to a family—or if a described family should be recognized at all—are proposed and determined by practicing taxonomists. There are no hard rules for describing or recognizing a family, but in plants, they can be characterized on the basis of both vegetative and reproductive features of plant species. Taxonomists often take different positions about descriptions, and there may be no broad consensus across the scientific community for some time. The publishing of new data and opini ...

picture info	Demosponge Demosponges (Demospongiae) are the most diverse class in the phylum Porifera. They include 76.2% of all species of sponges with nearly 8,800 species worldwide (World Porifera Database). They are sponges with a soft body that covers a hard, often massive skeleton made of calcium carbonate, either aragonite or calcite. They are predominantly leuconoid in structure. Their "skeletons" are made of spicules consisting of fibers of the protein spongin, the mineral silica, or both. Where spicules of silica are present, they have a different shape from those in the otherwise similar glass sponges. Some species, in particular from the Antarctic, obtain the silica for spicule building from the ingestion of siliceous diatoms. The many diverse orders in this class include all of the large sponges. Most are marine dwellers, but one order ( Spongillida) live in freshwater environments. Some species are brightly colored, with great variety in body shape; the largest species are ove ...

picture info	Clathria ''Clathria'' is a large genus of demosponges in the family Microcionidae. Taxonomy ''Clathria'' was first formally named in Eduard Oscar Schmidt's 1862 ''Die Spongien des adriatischen Meeres'' ("The sponges of the Adriatic Sea"). The type species is ''Clathria'' (''Clathria'') ''compressa''. The genus is divided into several subgenera: * ''Clathria'' (''Axosuberites'') Topsent, 1893 * ''Clathria'' (''Clathria'') Schmidt, 1862 * ''Clathria'' (''Cornulotrocha'') Hallmann, 1920 * ''Clathria'' (''Dendrocia'') Topsent, 1927 * ''Clathria'' (''Isociella'') Hallmann, 1920 * ''Clathria'' (''Microciona'') Bowerbank, 1862 * ''Clathria'' (''Paresperia'') Burton, 1930 * ''Clathria'' (''Thalysias'') Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864 * ''Clathria'' (''Wilsonella'') Carter, 1885 Species The following species are recognised in the genus ''Clathria'': Subgenus Clathria (Axosuberites) Topsent, 1893 * ''Clathria (Axosuberites) aurantia'' Annunziata, Cavalcanti, Santos & Pinheiro, 2019 * ' ...
