Axinyssa aculeata
Taxonomy
This page represents the following TreeOfLife-200M taxonomic path.[1]
- Kingdom: Animalia
- Phylum: Porifera
- Class: Demospongiae
- Order: Suberitida
- Family: Halichondriidae
- Genus: Axinyssa
- Species: Axinyssa aculeata
Visual Description
Museum specimen images associated with Axinyssa aculeata depict preserved sponge material labeled as Axinyssa aculeata (basis of record: preserved specimen).[2]
Species Notes
Axinyssa aculeata is treated as an accepted species name by GBIF (as Axinyssa aculeata Wilson, 1925).[2]
A microbiology study focused on endobacteria in cnidarians and nudibranch predators includes A. aculeata only as a source of dietary chemical compounds (sesquiterpenes) that can be accumulated by the nudibranch Phyllidia varicosa; it does not investigate A. aculeata sponge-specific microbiology or ecology.[3]
