The recent interest in carnivorous sponges and in the deep-sea in general explains this increase in knowledge concerning these sponges.

described here also increase knowledge concerning the diversity of spicules of car- nivorous sponges, especially for cheloid microscleres. Macrosclere spicules in general have a skeletal or a protective role. The function of microscleres, however, is less clear and very largely unknown. The role of chelae and most other microscleres in filtering, non-carnivorous sponges is far from well understood—if we forget the invaluable help of these spicules to the sponge taxonomists for identification. Yet in spite of lacking any function—or at least any or known function—the cheloid spicules have nevertheless greatly diversified in filtering poecilosclerids. Very remarkably, in carnivorous sponges these spicules have acquired a precise function in the capture of prey. These sponges build a regular arrangement of chelae on filaments or inflated spheres, with their hook-like teeth and alae outwardly exposed, acting as a Velcro-like cover for ensnaring the setae or appendages of their prey. This mode of capture of macro-prey has been evidenced in several species (
