Family TETRATORMENTIDAE Nestell & Nestell, 2010

REMARKS

This family was erected to include tetrahedral and bipyramidal forms that possess a microsphere and a 4-6 rayed spicule. The external shell is spongy or platy. This family houses forms that do not neatly fit into the triangular spongy Ruzencivespongidae, nor the spiraled Pseudolithellidae. Included within are Tetratormentum , Tetragregnon , Quadrilobata , and tentatively Mostlerispongus.
