Description
Summary:Aplysina minima Hentschel, 1914 (Fig. 25, Tab. 21) Aplysina minima Hentschel, 1914: 137, pl. 4, fig. 18. Burton 1929: 447. Koltun 1964: 111, 1976:197. Material. 1 specimen from station 048-1 (SMF 11774), 602.1 m, 70° 23.94' S, 8° 19.14' W, 12.01.2008. Description. Observed specimen (Fig. 25 A) oval-rounded, about 1.5 cm high, overgrowing bryozoan colonies. Surface irregular, bristled by thin conules formed of protruding spongin fibres. In some parts, surface bearing regularly arranged pores. Color in ethanol lightly brown-beige. Skeleton (Fig. 25 B–D) made up of primary fibres running mostly parallel to each other towards surface, there forming thin, vague surface conules. Primary fibres interconnected by secondary fibres. These additionally forming a kind of slimmed reticulation, where replacing primary fibres. In some cases, primary fibres developing into thinner secondary fibres, a distinct differentiation often hard to recognize. Reticulum of secondary fibres alone less organized than that of primary and ... : Published as part of Göcke, Christian & Janussen, Dorte, 2013, Demospongiae of ANT XXIV / 2 (SYSTCO I) Expedition — Antarctic Eastern Weddell Sea, pp. 28-101 in Zootaxa 3692 (1) on pages 94-95, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3692.1.5, http://zenodo.org/record/249019 ...
