FIGURE 2. A in Revision of the genus Fascaplysinopsis, the type species Fascaplysinopsis reticulata (Hentschel, 1912) (Porifera, Dictyoceratida, Thorectidae) and descriptions of two new genera and seven new species

FIGURE 2. A. Fasciculated primary fibres (indicated by white arrows), one bundle showing a ladder-like appearance with secondary fibres (indicated by yellow arrows) connecting the primary fibres (Skolosachlys enlutea sp. nov. QM G322804). B. Heavily fasciculated fibre (Rubrafasciculus cerasus sp. nov. QM G314831). C. Cross section of the specimen depicted in A, cutting through the fibres at a right angle. Note both primary and secondary fibres are cored (indicated by yellow arrows). The black arrows indicate the collagenous mesohyl. D. Clear distinct laminations present in both primary and secondary fibres; coring in primary fibres only; pithing often present in the secondary fibres. The arrow i points to a secondary fibre showing anastomosis between two primary fibres. The arrow ii points to branching of a primary fibre. The arrow iii points to a laminated fibre. E. Fibre coring, iv, coring of detritus (sand and spicules) in the primary fibre, v, pith in the secondary fibre, (Fascaplysinopsis reticulata QM G314421).
