Chalinula renieroides Schmidt 1868 View in CoL , 7; De Weerdt 2000, 59, Fig, 3U, 44A–C.

Material examined. ESFM –POR / 2014– 0 0 2, October 2014, 30 m, on Mytilus galloprovincialis , 1 specimen.

Description. The specimen is massive and encrusting, and grey-brown in color (fixed specimen) ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 B). Specimen has slightly hispid surface and soft consistency. Oscules are non-elevated, 2-3 mm in size. Choanosomal skeleton has an arranged unispicular (occasionally paucispicular) reticulation that consists of 2-6 spicules in every cross section ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 B). Spicules only consist of robust, short, curved oxeas: 60-100 x 2-8 µm ( Fig. 4 View FIGURE 4 B). All skeletal column include a few amount of sponging which are present at the nodes of the spicules.

Habitat and distribution. This species was found on a Mytilus galloprovincialis at 30 m depth in the Black Sea. It is a common species inhabiting shell and rocky substrata in the shallow-water environments in the western and eastern Mediterranean Sea ( Pulitzer-Finali 1978, De Weerdt 2000, Voultsiadou 2005).
