Notes: Orange encrusting sponge with the surface covered by irregularly polygonal armor plates. Spaces between plates with soft tissue and oscules. According to the recent review of van Soest (2009), it may correspond to Placospongia intermedia sensu de Laubenfels (1936b), from the Caribbean side of Panama, but detailed comparison of spicules is pending for confirmation.
