Callyspongia Vaginalis
''Callyspongia'' (''Cladochalina'') ''aculeata'', commonly known as the branching vase sponge is a species of '' Porifora'', meaning sea sponge, in the family Callyspongiidae. Poriferans are typically characterized by ostia, pores that filter out plankton, with an osculum as the opening which water leaves through, and choanocytes trap food particles. This species is frequently colonized by '' Parazoanthus parasiticus'', a colonial anemone, and '' Ophiothrix suensonii'', a brittle star. It feeds on plankton and detritus. The color of ''C. aculeata'' is variable, ranging from red to orange, lavender to brownish-gray, greenish-gray, and sometimes light tan. Defining Traits ''Callyspongia aculeata'' usually has a tubular growth pattern, although the magnitude of the current affects its growth form. The dominant morphotypes are tubular elongated and tubular vaciform. The long, erect tubes taper slightly and have a wide vent up to 2.5 cm in diameter with a thin wall. The sponge ...
