Advances in Sponge Science: Phylogeny, Systematics, Ecology
Outgrowth of the [8th] World Sponge Conference held in Girona, Spain, in Sept. 2010. Cf. pref.
Porifera
This volume is the authoritative source on sponges of Australia and its territorial waters. It deals with some 1400 species in 77 families. The volume contains numerous taxonomic decisions and includes an historical overview of sponge taxonomy. A synopsis of the location and status of Australian collections is also provided. This is the first comprehensive catalogue of Australian Porifera and is an essential text for those involved with this group.
NEW PERSPECT SPONGE BIO
A collection of 78 selected papers from the November 1985 Conference, including studies on sponge paleobiology, biochemistry, chemotaxonomy, immunology, chemical defenses, cell structure, biogeography, evolutionary biology, community structure, population ecology, species interaction, and ecophysiology. Thoroughly illustrated and beautifully produced, albeit without an index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Systema Porifera
Research whilst compiling this book has uncovered a fauna about twice the size as that previously published in the literature and consequently Systema Porifera revises and stabilizes the systematics of the phylum to accommodate this new knowledge in a contemporary framework. Practical tools (key illustrations, descriptions of character) are provided to facilitate the assignment of approximately 680 extant and 100 fossil genera. Systema Porifera is unique making sponge taxonomy widely available at the practical level of classification (genera, families, order). It is a taxonomic revision of sponges and spongiomorphis (such as sphinctozoans and archaeocyathans) based on re-evaluation of type m...
