The typical habit of this species is that of cones, wider than longer, growing on one another in an alternating or pinnate pattern; conforming to what is called the octopus form when cones are somewhat long, the club-shaped form when the sponge is erect and cones very low, or the antler-like form when groups of cones branch out. Octopus and club-shaped forms commonly coexist, being manifestations of the same growth pattern. Predominant morphology seems to be fixed for certain locations. For example, octopus-like, hanging or creeping branches predominate in

) there was not enough resolution to separate these three and other species, we decided to keep them separated owing to rather consistent morphological differences, especially in sites where they happened to coexist.
