• Global Diversity of Sponges (Porifera) (2012, background): “The latter species was able to thrive in laboratory conditions, offering excellent study conditions [43].”
• The fauna of hydrothermal vents on the Mohn Ridge (North Atlantic) (2010, background): “In addition, these sponges are carnivorous, feeding on the highly abundant small crustaceans in the vent area (Vacelet & Duport 2004; Vacelet 2006).”
• Poriferan paraphyly and its implications for Precambrian palaeobiology (2007, background): “…the fact that one modern clade of demosponges, the cladorhizids, lost the WCS and feeds macrophagously upon mesozooplankton using a derived mode of extracellular digestion (Vacelet & Boury-Esnault 1995) may shed light on the analogous loss of the WCS in early eumetazoans (Vacelet & Duport 2004).”
