Description
Summary:Figure 9. Sections and spicules of Geodia barretti Bowerbank, 1858. A, thick section showing the cortex essentially made of sterrasters, and underlying large dichotriaenes. Scale bar: 1 mm. B, thick section in a preoscule showing the uniporal oscules (u.o.) with a single sphincter (s). Between the oscules, bundles of microxeas and strongylasters. Note the near absence of sterrasters. Scale bar: 500 Mm. C, microxeas, rarely modified to microstyles (ZMBN 77922, Korsfjord). Arrow points at centrotylote portion. D, dichotriaene (UPSZMC 78260, Davis Strait). E, anatriaene (UPSZMC 78260, Davis Strait). F, oxyaster II (ZMBN 77922, Korsfjord). G, strongylasters (ZMBN 77922, Korsfjord). H, oxyasters I (PC359, western Ireland). I, oxyasters I (Balgim CP98-47). J, close-up on the hilum of a sterraster. Notice the warty rosettes (ZMBN 77922, Korsfjord). Scale bar: 2 Mm. K, sterraster (ZMBN 77922, Korsfjord).
