Calcareous sponges of the subclass Calcinea from Martinique (Caribbean Sea) are presented under an integrative perspective (morphology and DNA: ITS C-LSU). Eleven species six genera have been found in Martinique, three them being new to science: Borojevia crystallina sp. nov., Clathrina delicata Ernstia adunca nov. Among these records, four were previously known other Caribbean localities: Arturia vansoesti, insularis, C. mutabilis, Leucaltis clathria. Two Brazilian waters reported for first...
Despite the enormous economic, scientific and strategic value of Brazilian oceanic mid-shelf islands (BOMIs), biological communities these are still poorly known. An example is their fauna calcareous sponges (Porifera: Calcarea), with only six species described up to date. In present study, we analysed Calcinean from Abrolhos Archipelago four five (São Pedro e São Paulo Archipelago, Fernando de Noronha Rocas Atoll, Trindade Island), using both morphological molecular approaches for taxonomy....
Calcareous sponges from the Lesser Antilles were recently inventoried and several specimens morphologically resembling species of genus Ascoleucetta collected. Morphological molecular (C-LSU ITS) analyses indicated that these constituted a new genus. They lack conspicuous very characteristic ornamentation inhalant apertures found in two out three Ascoleucetta, including type A. compressa. In analyses, clustered as an independent lineage, distant clade Based on results, we decided to erect...
In this study we analyze the calcarean sponge diversity of Adriatic Sea, type locality some first described species sponges. Morphological and molecular approaches are combined for taxonomic identification. Our results reveal six new to science provisionally endemic Sea (Ascandra spalatensis sp. nov., Borojevia croatica Leucandra falakra L. spinifera Paraleucilla dalmatica Sycon ancora nov.), one previously known only from Southwestern Atlantic (Clathrina conifera), three already (Ascaltis...
