Taxonomic remark From Nadhira et al., 2019: Reticulosa was originally established as an extinct lineage of hexactinellids [by Reid, 1958], but it has become a ‘wastebasket taxon’ for thin-walled sponges with a semi-regular array of hexactin-based spicules, and is undoubtedly para- and/or polyphyletic as currently composed [Botting JP, Muir LA. 2018 Early sponge evolution: a review and phylogenetic framework. Palaeoworld 27, 1-29]. [details]
