Arturia
Taxonomy
This page represents the following TreeOfLife-200M taxonomic path.[1]
- Kingdom: Animalia
- Phylum: Porifera
- Class: Calcarea
- Order: Clathrinida
- Family: Clathrinidae
- Genus: Arturia
Visual Description
Arturia comprises calcareous sponges (Calcarea). Museum-specimen images in biodiversity aggregators under this genus commonly depict preserved sponge bodies, typically shown as consolidated fragments or whole specimens photographed for morphological documentation (e.g., Naturalis and Yale Peabody Museum specimen images for species such as Arturia canariensis and Arturia passionensis).
Taxonomic Status and Sources
GBIF lists Arturia (authored by Azevedo et al., 2017) as an accepted genus within Clathrinidae, providing its lineage through Calcarea → Calcinea → Clathrinida → Clathrinidae. [2]
BOLD Systems taxonomic browsing also associates the name Arturia with the same higher-level classification chain to Calcarea, Clathrinida, and Clathrinidae. [3]
NCBI’s taxonomy/biosource integration similarly places Arturia within Porifera → Calcarea → Calcinea → Clathrinida → Clathrinidae. [4]
