Sometimes conules appear joined by regular ridges forming low honeycombs; sometimes the surface is irregular and contorted, with pinacoderm stretching between ridges. Pinacoderm is a bright, sometimes semitransparent, easily distinguishable membrane; it rests on nonapparent tufts of spicules protruding from main fibres. When the pinacoderm contracts, the conules are more visible and the pinacoderm can be ripped out easily. The choanosome is very cavernous; caverns lined by a bright endopinacoderm.
