Genus Leucetta Haeckel, 1872 Type species: Leucetta primigenia Haeckel, 1872 (by original designation). Genus diagnosis: Leucettidae with a homogeneous organization of the wall and a typical leuconoid aquiferous system. There is neither a clear distinction between the cortex and the choanoskeleton, nor is a distinct layer of subcortical inhalant cavities present. The atrium may be reduced to a system of exhalant canals that open directly into the osculum or may be a large cavity (modified from Borojevic et al. 2002). ... : Published as part of Rapp, Hans Tore, Göcke, Christian, Tendal, Ole Secher & Janussen, Dorte, 2013, Two new species of calcareous sponges (Porifera: Calcarea) from the deep Antarctic Eckström Shelf and a revised list of species found in Antarctic waters, pp. 149-159 in Zootaxa 3692 (1) on page 154, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3692.1.9, http://zenodo.org/record/218976 ...
