	Halisarcidae Halisarcidae is a family of sea sponges within the order Chondrillida. Members of the family are characterised by having long tubular, branched choanocyte chambers; they have no spicules Spicules are any of various small needle-like anatomical structures occurring in organisms Spicule may also refer to: Spicule (sponge), small skeletal elements of sea sponges Spicule (nematode), reproductive structures found in male nematodes ( ... which makes it difficult to determine the group's affinities with other sponge families. Halisarcidae is a monogeneric family, the only genus being ''Halisarca''.Vacelet, J.; Donadey, C. (1987).

picture info	Sea Sponge Sponges or sea sponges are primarily marine invertebrates of the animal phylum Porifera (; meaning 'pore bearer'), a basal clade and a sister taxon of the diploblasts. They are sessile filter feeders that are bound to the seabed, and are one of the most ancient members of macrobenthos, with many historical species being important reef-building organisms. Sponges are multicellular organisms consisting of jelly-like mesohyl sandwiched between two thin layers of cells, and usually have tube-like bodies full of pores and channels that allow water to circulate through them. They have unspecialized cells that can transform into other types and that often migrate between the main cell layers and the mesohyl in the process. They do not have complex nervous, digestive or circulatory systems. Instead, most rely on maintaining a constant water flow through their bodies to obtain food and oxygen and to remove wastes, usually via flagella movements of the so-called " collar cells". ...
