Bubarida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha. [2]
Demospongiae is the most diverse class in the phylum Porifera. They include 76.2% of all species of sponges with nearly 8,800 species worldwide. 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.
Heteroscleromorpha is a subclass of demosponges within the phylum Porifera.
Polymastia is a genus of sponges (Porifera) containing about 30 species. These are small to large encrusting or dome-shaped sponges with a smooth surface having many teat-shaped projections (papillae). In areas of strong wave action, this genus does not grow the teat structures, but instead grows in a corrugated form.
Homoscleromorpha is a class of marine sponges composed of two families: Plakinidae and Oscarellidae.
Axinellidae is a family of sponges in the order Axinellida.
Pachymatisma is a genus of demosponges belonging to the family Geodiidae.
Dictyoceratida is an order of sponges in the subclass Ceractinomorpha containing five families. Along with the Dendroceratida, it is one of the two orders of demosponges that make up the keratose or "horny" sponges, in which a mineral skeleton is minimal or absent and a skeleton of organic fibers containing spongin, a collagen-like material, is present instead.
Pachydictyum globosum is a species of freshwater sponge in the family Malawispongiidae. It lives in Sulawesi, Indonesia.
Aplysina is the name of a genus of demosponges within the phylum Porifera. It was first authenticated and described by Nardo in 1834.
Clionaida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Desmacellida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Polymastiida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Scopalinidae is an family of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha. It is the only family in the monotypic order Scopalinida.
Tethyida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Agelasida is an order of sea sponges in the class Demospongiae.
Biemnida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Merliida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Trachycladida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Sphaerocladina is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
Spongillida is an order of demosponges in the subclass Heteroscleromorpha.
