Genus Acanthodendrilla Bergquist, 1995 View in CoL
TYPE SPECIES. — A. australis Bergquist, 1995 by monotypy.
DIAGNOSIS. — Reticulate fibrous skeleton with irregular mesh arrangement with all elements cored with detritus. Reticulation is more pronounced superficially, and ascending primary fibres project above the sponge surface. Absence of spongin spicules distinguishes the genus from Igernella and the irregular reticulum does it from Dictyodendrilla (from Bergquist 1995).
