Agelas citrina, /The Sponge Guide:
Notes: Pinkish,
tan or orange, ear-shaped thick fans; orange when filling crevices. It
may be confused with Agelas clathrodes (Schmidt,
1870), also pictured here, which is harder. A. citrina has
a thick skin, which in some portions forms conules or it is stretched
over depressions. When they co-exist in the same locality, they can be
distinguised by color, being milkier and lighter in A.
citrina. Spicules are acanthostyles.
