  • Genus Lelapia Gray, 1867
  • TYPE SPECIES. - Lelapia australis Gray, 1867 by monotypy.
  • Lelapia antiqua Dendy & Frederick, 1924 and L. australis represent a series of modifications from Paralelapia (Dendy & Frederick 1924). As in Kebira, the choanoskeleton is reduced to spicule tracts, that are progressively invaded by the cortical diactines, which lead to the formation of a thick and rigid sponge wall (Fig. 40).

  • TYPE SPECIES. - Sycyssa huxleyi Haeckel, 1872 by monotypy. DIAGNOSIS. - Leucosoleniida (?) with a syconoid organization. The skeleton consists of diactines only.
