Material examined. ESFM –POR / 2014–006, October 2013, 9 m, on sandy bottom, 1 specimen.

Notes. Specimen has brown color in alcohol ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 E). Consistency is soft and elastic. Oscules are arranged in disorder, which is up to 6 mm. Skeleton network of primary (80–180 µm) fibres were cored by grains ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 E2), and secondary fibres are thinner than primary fibres (30–40 µm) ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 E1). It has a very thin filaments (4–8 µm), and the inclusions were absent ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 E3).

Habitat and distribution. This species was previously collected in different hard bottom (cave, coralligenous community, detritic and rocky) habitats in the Mediterranean Sea ( Schmidt 1862, Vacelet 1959, Pansini 1987, Voultsiadou 2005, Evcen & Cinar 2012) and the coasts of West Africa, Atlantic Ocean ( Burton 1956).
