GENUS GRANTESSA LENDENFELD, 1885 View in CoL

Type species: Grantessa sacca Lendenfeld, 1885 .

Diagnosis: ‘ Heteropiidae with syconoid organization and an articulated choanoskeleton. A thin cortex is formed by triactines but lacks longitudinal large diactines. The distal part of the radial tubes is frequently decorated by tufts of radially arranged diactines, indicating a close relationship to the genus Syconessa ’ ( Borojevic et al., 2002).
