  • Proposal for a Revised Classification of the Demospongiae (Porifera) Christine Morrow1 and Paco Cárdenas2,3*
    Morrow and Cárdenas Frontiers in Zoology (2015) 12:7 DOI 10.1186/s12983-015-0099-8 DEBATE Open Access Proposal for a revised classification of the Demospongiae (Porifera) Christine Morrow1 and Paco Cárdenas2,3* Abstract Background: Demospongiae is the largest sponge class including 81% of all living sponges with nearly 7,000 species worldwide. Systema Porifera (2002) was the result of a large international collaboration to update the Demospongiae higher taxa classification, essentially based on morphological data. Since then, an increasing number of molecular phylogenetic studies have considerably shaken this taxonomic framework, with numerous polyphyletic groups revealed or confirmed and new clades discovered. And yet, despite a few taxonomical changes, the overall framework of the Systema Porifera classification still stands and is used as it is by the scientific community. This has led to a widening phylogeny/classification gap which creates biases and inconsistencies for the many end-users of this classification and ultimately impedes our understanding of today’s marine ecosystems and evolutionary processes. In an attempt to bridge this phylogeny/classification gap, we propose to officially revise the higher taxa Demospongiae classification. Discussion: We propose a revision of the Demospongiae higher taxa classification, essentially based on molecular data of the last ten years. We recommend the use of three subclasses: Verongimorpha, Keratosa and Heteroscleromorpha. We retain seven (Agelasida, Chondrosiida, Dendroceratida, Dictyoceratida, Haplosclerida, Poecilosclerida, Verongiida) of the 13 orders from Systema Porifera. We recommend the abandonment of five order names (Hadromerida, Halichondrida, Halisarcida, lithistids, Verticillitida) and resurrect or upgrade six order names (Axinellida, Merliida, Spongillida, Sphaerocladina, Suberitida, Tetractinellida). Finally, we create seven new orders (Bubarida, Desmacellida, Polymastiida, Scopalinida, Clionaida, Tethyida, Trachycladida).

  • Supplementary Materials: Patterns of Sponge Biodiversity in the Pilbara, Northwestern Australia
    Diversity 2016, 8, 21; doi:10.3390/d8040021 S1 of S3 9 Supplementary Materials: Patterns of Sponge Biodiversity in the Pilbara, Northwestern Australia Jane Fromont, Muhammad Azmi Abdul Wahab, Oliver Gomez, Merrick Ekins, Monique Grol and John Norman Ashby Hooper 1. Materials and Methods 1.1. Collation of Sponge Occurrence Data Data of sponge occurrences were collated from databases of the Western Australian Museum (WAM) and Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) [1]. Pilbara sponge data on ALA had been captured in a northern Australian sponge report [2], but with the WAM data, provides a far more comprehensive dataset, in both geographic and taxonomic composition of sponges. Quality control procedures were undertaken to remove obvious duplicate records and those with insufficient or ambiguous species data. Due to differing naming conventions of OTUs by institutions contributing to the two databases and the lack of resources for physical comparison of all OTU specimens, a maximum error of ± 13.5% total species counts was determined for the dataset, to account for potentially unique (differently named OTUs are unique) or overlapping OTUs (differently named OTUs are the same) (157 potential instances identified out of 1164 total OTUs). The amalgamation of these two databases produced a complete occurrence dataset (presence/absence) of all currently described sponge species and OTUs from the region (see Table S1). The dataset follows the new taxonomic classification proposed by [3] and implemented by [4]. The latter source was used to confirm present validities and taxon authorities for known species names. The dataset consists of records identified as (1) described (Linnean) species, (2) records with “cf.” in front of species names which indicates the specimens have some characters of a described species but also differences, which require comparisons with type material, and (3) records as “operational taxonomy units” (OTUs) which are considered to be unique species although further assessments are required to establish their taxonomic status.

    Sponge bioerosion and habitat degradation on Indonesian coral reefs by Joseph Marlow A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2017 2 Acknowledgments Firstly I would like to thank my primary supervisor, Associate Professor James Bell, for his unwavering support and advice these past three years. I feel very lucky to have had James as my supervisor, his help and guidance whether it was in the field, in the lab or in relation to the many many manuscript drafts I sent him has always been fantastic. I would also like to thank my secondary supervisor, Professor Simon Davy, in particular for his advice about Symbiodinium and photophysiology but also for his overall support and excellent feedback on manuscripts. This research could not have happened without the funding and support from Operation Wallacea. I would like to thank in particular Pippa Mansell for her incredible management of the research station and thank both her and Chris Majors for all their support and help with my research. Thanks to all the Indonesian staff who kept me fed, in the water and made sure I always had a cold Bintang waiting for me at the end of the day. I am incredibly grateful for the support and funding provided by VUW, without which I would not have been able to complete this PhD. Thanks also to the PADI foundation which also provided research funding and Daniel LeDuc and Dennis Gordon at NIWA for their help and providing access to the SEM.

Abstract A new bioeroding sponge belonging to the genus Cliona is described from the Australian Great Barrier Reef, Cliona minuscula, sp. nov. As the sponge lacked microscleres, comparison with existing clionaid species was difficult. We considered 15 other species of Cliona with only tylostyles: C. alderi, C. arenosa. C. caesia nov. comb., C. californiana, C. celata, C. delitrix, C. dissimilis, C. ecaudis, C. insidiosa, C. janitrix, C. kempi, C. laticavicola, C. macgeachii, C. millepunctata and C. peponaca. Characters of all species are presented in table-form to facilitate comparison during future studies. We listed additional species of Cliona that were not directly compared to the new species, because they were either invalid, insufficiently described, or they may not be obligate bioeroders. The form and dimensions of the megascleres of C. minuscula, sp. nov. indicated that it is distinct from all considered species.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Discorhabdella pseudaster n. sp. is an incrusting sponge from the upper bathyal zone of the ‘Banc du Geyser’, north of Madagascar, Mozambique Channel. This new species is described only from a single specimen but it is remarkable by the presence of spicules similar to euasters, a type of microsclere unknown in Poecilosclerida. These spicules are in fact a new example of homoplasy, being derivatives of the typical Discorhabdella pseudoastrose acanthostyles, which are here re- duced to the aster-like tyles. The isochelae with a large lamella on the shaft are also quite unique in Poeciloclerida. Key words: Porifera, new species, Madagascar, bathyal, homoplasy Introduction The Mozambique Channel is still a poorly explored area for Demospongiae, despite the works of Bösraug (1913), Lévi (1956, 1964), Vacelet & Vasseur (1965, 1971) and Vacelet et al. (1976), Vasseur & Lévi (1976) who collected extensively in W Madagascar and Europa Island.

  • “Diversity and Specificity of the Marine Sponge Microbiome As Inspected by Next Generation Sequencing”
    “DIVERSITY AND SPECIFICITY OF THE MARINE SPONGE MICROBIOME AS INSPECTED BY NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING” André Rodrigues Soares Mestrado em Biologia Molecular e Microbiana Trabalho efetuado sob a orientação de: Dr. Rodrigo da Silva Costa Prof.ª Dr.ª Maria Margarida dos Prazeres Reis 2015 Acknowledgements For the completion of the present work, the support of the Microbial Ecology and Evolution (MicroEcoEvo) research group at the CCMAR was crucial. Firstly, I thank Rodrigo Costa, my supervisor, who drew me into the field of microbial ecology of marine sponges and posed me the great challenge of tackling the EMP dataset. Furthermore, I am thankful for all the enthusiasm and opportunities provided and for the immense patience! Gianmaria Califano, now in Jena, Austria, and Asunción Lago- Lestón dispensed precious time and patience in the starting phase of this thesis. I further thank Elham Karimi for the help in the laboratory and for our relaxing coffee talks! Tina Keller-Costa, Telma Franco and more recently Miguel Ramos, along with the abovementioned, are all part of the MicroEcoEvo team, to whom I thank for a wonderful first medium-term experience in a laboratory! I admittedly started my Biology Bsc. at the University of Algarve not being fond of any biological entity smaller than 2cm. It was Prof. Margarida Reis (Microbial and Molecular Ecology Laboratory, CIMA, UAlg) who showed me that ‘microbes can do anything’ and went on to accepting the challenge of supervising my Bsc. Technical and Scientific Project. I therefore thank her for introducing me to Microbiology in the best way possible. For the completeness of this work, Lucas Moitinho-Silva (currently at the University of South Wales, Australia), was essential in introducing me to R scripting whilst finishing his PhD at Wüezburg University, Germany.

St Lucia Campus, Brisbane. Qld 4072. Australia (Received 3 June 2012; final version received 15 April 2013) Clionaids are important competitors and bio-eroding agents on coral reefs; how- ever, little is known of their biology. We studied aspects of life history of Cliona tenuis, in particular its sexual reproduction and growth. Temporal variations in these traits were studied over a year, in correlation with water temperature as a proxy for seasonality. Growth and sexual reproduction occurred at separate times and followed intra-annual variations in temperature. Growth increased during the warmest months of the year, reaching an average rate of 29.9 ± 6.7 mm dur- ing 286 days. Cliona tenuis is oviparous, and the results suggest gonochorism.
