Scale: 1 cm. Callyspongiidae Callyspongia perforata (Fig. 71) Occurrence: Shimoni (04°43'S - 39°23'E), Howards Rocks, depth 2-4 m, diver, 23 February 1974. , Holotype (): msng 48335. : The specimen (not entire) is subcylindrical, 10 cm long, cm thick, bifurcating at the top in tapering processes. The surface bears acute conules about 2 mm high. The numerous oscules are on one side only, in a row, 4 to 8 mm wide, with elevated rim. The sponge, in life, was slightly mucous. The colour in spirit is ochre (), the consistency resilient, harsh to the touch. The ectosomal skeleton is a reticulation of plurispicular fibres 27-37 urn thick, forming meshes 370-560 (im wide. Inside them there is a secondary reticulation of spongin fibres cored by one to several spicules in cross section. They.
