	Homaxinella ''Homaxinella'' is a genus of sea sponges in the family Suberitidae. The type species is '' Homaxinella balfourensis''.

	Homaxinella Balfourensis ''Homaxinella balfourensis'' is a species of sea sponge in the family Suberitidae. It is found in the seas around Antarctica and can grow in two forms, either branching out in one plane like a fan or forming an upright club-like structure. Description ''Homaxinella balfourensis'' is attached to the substrate by roots and has creeping stolons. It is usually arborescent with a main trunk and a dichotomous branching habit of growth but can also be clavate, thickening upwards like a club. The lower branches are stout and cylindrical while the upper branches are soft and spongy and are sometimes clavate themselves. It can grow to a length of with flattened branches up to long and wide. The surface of the sponge is smooth and ranges in colour from white, cream or orange to light grey. The silicaceous stiffening elements in the sponge's skeleton are called spicules, and the type and shape of these plays an important part in the identification of sponges.
