From editor or global species database
Classification Bispo et al. (2026) reassigned all species previously (2026) assigned to genus Chalinula to Haliclona subgenus Haliclona (Chalinula) largely on the basis of molecular evidence. Since these authors only studied the tropical West Atlantic species, and given the general inconsistency of morphological and molecular data in many Haplosclerida groups, some of the species from other regions may turn out to be members of other (sub)genera. [details]
