FIGURE 1 in A new species of Amphimedon (Porifera, Demospongiae, Haplosclerida, Niphatidae) from the Capricorn­Bunker Group of Islands, Great Barrier Reef, Australia: target species for the ' sponge genome project'

FIGURE 1. Amphimedon queenslandica sp.nov. A, Holotype QMG315611 in aquarium (scale 1 cm) (photo Nelson Lauzon). B, Peripheral skeletal reticulation (scale 1 mm). C, Closer view of the subectosomal skeleton (scale 1 mm). D, Paratype QMG322874 in aquarium (scale 1 cm) (photo Simon Walker). E, Thicker fibres with embedded spicules forming a denser surface skeleton, supported beneath by the more cavernous subectosomal reticulation (scale 500 μm). F, Network of smaller secondary (uni­ and paucispicular) tracts overlaying the thicker primary (multi­ and paucispicular) fibres (scale 500 μm). G, Uni­ and paucispicular secondary skeletal tracts interconnecting the larger primary fibres (scale 100 μm). H, Isodictyal reticulation of smaller secondary (uni­ and paucispicular) tracts (scale 50 μm). I, Oxeas embedded in spongin binding the nodes of smaller secondary tracts (scale 50 μm). J, Oxea megascleres (scale 50 μm).
