#2629, colonies small, green, soft and slimy, with small globular spicules mostly in a dense white cluster around each zooid, as well described by Kott (1980, 2001), Monniot F. (1992) and Su et al. (2013). As with all Lissoclinum species there is a single testis and straight sperm duct. Zooids very contracted.

Distribution: Indonesia, Singapore. Fiji, Australia, Palau, New Caledonia.
