Skeleton:
Ectosome: Dermal membrane with Isochelae, below which are Tornotes more or less tangential to the surface.
Choanosome: Dense mesenchyme with ill-defined tracts to surface. These crudely echinated by Styles. The tracts form a loose reticulation.
Distribution: Southern to Northern California.
Depth: Intertidal to deep water.
Note: Bakus, 1966 described this species from Washington and noted the presence of pore seives which do not occur in Lissodendoryx. While this is the most common form seen in California, it may be a different species (Hamigera?) from that described by de Laubenfels. See Page 142A and B.
