CMNI 2018-0177, specimen in 95% ethanol, collected by Curtis Dinn by BX 650 MK III box core; July 14, 2017, 507m depth (62° 49.126’ N, 66°56.354’ W) operated from the CCGS Amundsen, Frobisher Bay, Canada.

The spicules (Fig. 4 B–F) consist of ... : Published as part of Dinn, Curtis, Edinger, Evan & Leys, Sally P., 2019, Sponge (Porifera) fauna of Frobisher Bay, Baffin Island, Canada with the description of an Iophon rich sponge garden, pp. 301-325 in Zootaxa 4576 (2) on pages 311-313, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4576.2.5, http://zenodo.org/record/2624952 ... |
