The architectural plan and development of the selenaster described in detail by Vosmaer &amp; Vernhout (1902) is now confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (Rützler &amp; Macintyre 1978; Gonzáles-Farías 1989). It is based on circular arching of the original axis (a spiraster-like spiny microrhabd which is lost during development) and deposition of spines and cement between them toward a point of fusion, which results in an ovoid or bean-shaped spicule. In amphinolasters on the other hand, the axis remains straight and exposed (as shaft, with axial canal remaining visible) and spines extend radially from two distant points, the swollen extremities of a spiny microrhabd. Furthermore, spines in mature selenasters become cemented almost beyond recognition and the tips are connected by an intricate network of siliceous ridges which is only interrupted by a hilum, a circular depression believed to mark the position of the scleroblast nucleus (Sollas 1888). Spines in mature amphinolasters remain discreet and retain their mammiform appearance, and there is no hilum. Selenasters are quite large in all species, ranging from about 50 µm (larger diameter) in

The discrepancy between consistency and color observations made on the live sponge (gelatinous grey, slimy black on photograph) and appearance of the same specimen preserved in alcohol (leathery firm, light tan) could be attributed to a coating by cyanophytes or sciaphilous algae on the cortex which fell off during fixation because no pigment cells or granules can be seen in sections of the ectosome. A similar algal coating was noted on
