Description Description.— Globular sponges of max. 4-5 cm, with upper surface heavily covered by dark sediment and algae. Scattered porocalices and a few oscules on the upper surface, 5 mm diameter. Spicules not protruding far beyond the surface, so the surface appears ‘short-shaven’. Stalked buds present. Colour.— Orange, buds are yellow. Skeleton.— Spirally radiate (as usual for the genus). Spicules.— Oxeas, protriaenes, anatriaenes, sigmaspires. The megascleres are often broken in the preparations, so lengths are tentative. Oxeas sharply pointed, large size range, but not divisible in size categories, range from 1.9 up to 3.5 mm in length and up to 40 µm in diameter. Protriaenes and more often prodiaenes, range 1.2-2 mm in length and 7-9 µm in diameter, cladomes 40-50 µm, cladi 35-102 × 3-6 µm. Anatriaenes similar in length to protriaenes, up to 2 mm × 8-9 µm, cladomes 35-75 µm, cladi 20-40 × 6-7 µm. A considerable proportion shows very short stunted cladi. Sigmaspires 7-12 µm. Habitat.— On large stones between the tide marks. Remarks.— Microscopic slides of Carter’s type from Oman (BMNH unnumbered labelled Tethya arabica) and a fragment of Lendenfeld’s type of Cinachyra voeltzkowi confirmed that both species are synonymous and match the newly collected ZMA material.
