Description
editPlakortis sponges are characterised by having:[3]
- inorganic (spicular) skeletal complement
- Skeleton composed mainly of diods, triods, and/or calthrops in one size class
- Lophose diods, triods, or calthrops complement the main skeleton of non-lophose spicules
- no lophose spicules
- diactinal "microscleres" (microrhabs) in some species
