Crambe Crambe
''Crambe crambe'', commonly known as the oyster sponge or orange-red encrusting sponge, is a species of demosponges belonging to the family Crambeidae. Description The colonies of ''Crambe crambe'' form thin orange to orange-red plates, rarely lobed, with a very rough surface perforated by raised oscula found along the exhaling channels. These colonies can cover a surface of 1 m2. Biology ''Crambe crambe'' feeds by filtering bacteria, microorganisms and single-celled algae. This species is hermaphrodite. Larvae are planktonic. These demosponges often cover the shell of live shellfish (''Arca noae'', ''Spondylus'' and various sedentary bivalves). '' Eupolymnia nebulosa'' sometimes hides itself on these sponges. Distribution This species is endemic to the Mediterranean, but it is also present in the North Atlantic Ocean, in the English Channel and in the North Sea.Duran S, Giribet G, Turon XPhylogeographical history of the sponge Crambe crambe (Porifera, Poecilosclerida): range e ...

Gualtherus Carel Jacob Vosmaer
Gualtherus Carel Jacob Vosmaer (Oud-Beijerland, August 19, 1854 - Leiden, September 23, 1916 ) was a Dutch zoologist. Biography GCJ Vosmaer was born in 1854 in Oud-Beijerland, where his father, the poet and critic Carel Vosmaer was then a clerk at the subdistrict court. He studied in The Hague and subsequently at the University of Leiden, where he obtained his doctorate in 1880 with a thesis on sponges ("''Leucandra aspera'' and the Canal System of Sponges"). In 1882 he became Anton Dohrn's assistant at his zoological station in Naples. In 1889 he returned to the Netherlands and became assistant to Professor Ambrosius Hubrecht in Utrecht. Later he became a private teacher and lecturer in Utrecht and in 1904 he became professor of zoology in Leiden. Work Vosmaer was a specialist in the field of sponges, describing many species. In Naples he examined the sponges in the Bay of Naples. issued posthumously in 1933-1935 He also described the sponges collected during the ''Willem B ...

Demosponge
Demosponges or common sponges are sponges of the class Demospongiae (from + ), the most diverse group in the phylum Porifera which include greater than 90% of all extant sponges with nearly 8,800 species A species () is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. It is the basic unit of Taxonomy (biology), ... worldwide (according to the World Porifera Database). Being siliceous sponges, they are predominantly sponge#leuconoid, leuconoid in structure with an endoskeleton made of a meshwork of sponge spicule, spicules consisting of fibers of the protein spongin, the mineral silica, or both. Where spicules of silica are present, they have a different shape from those in the otherwise similar glass sponges. Some species, in particular from the Antarctic, obtain the silica for spicule-building from the ingestion of diatoms. The m ...

Crambeidae
Crambeidae is a family (biology), family of marine demosponges. Identification of members of this family of sponges is based on microscopic examination of the Sponge spicule, spicules in their skeleton. The megascleres consist of peripheral thinner subtylostyles and thicker choanosomal styles while the microscleres are exclusively anchorate Chela (organ), chelae.

Crambe Amarilla
''Crambe'' is a genus of annual and perennial flowering plants in the family Brassicaceae, native to a variety of habitats in Europe, Turkey, southwest and central Asia and eastern Africa. They carry dense racemes of tiny white or yellow flowers on (mostly leafless) stems above the basal leaves. ''Crambe hispanica'' subsp. ''abyssinica'', formerly known as '' Crambe abyssinica'', is grown for the oil from the seeds that has characteristics similar to whale oil. The word "crambe" derives, via the Latin ''crambe'', from the Greek ''κράμβη'', a kind of cabbage.
