Description

Haliclona Grant, 1841

Definition. Chalinidae with secondary lines unispicular and one spicule long (modified from de Weerdt 2002).

Remarks. We included “one spicule long” in the definition of Haliclona to contrast with the “one or more spicules long” of Chalinula, as this is the only feature distinguishing both genera.
