Sponge encrusting, gemmules rather numerous, very large, crust absent or inconspicuous. Skeleton spicules relatively few, slender, gradually pointed, smooth or microspined. Dermal spicules very abundant, minute, birotulate. Gemmule spicules smooth or irregu- lar, furnished with long spines, frequently located near the extremi- ties. Placed by some in genus Ephydalia. Found only in shallow water of lakes in Newfoundland (48° N. L.). i^/^%\:^ \' Jh Fig. 564. Spicules of Spongilla novae-terrae.
