Brief description

Samples of sponges were collected to assess the differences in abundance and diversity of invetebrate taxa from Ningaloo Reef (tropical) and Rottnest Island (temperate), Western Australia. The immediate habitat and substrate were sampled to assess any differences in faunal communities from surrounding habitats to sponge-associated fauna. Invertebrate communities were quantified from 11 sponge species across eight functional morphologies, and a total of 3966 individuals from 125 taxa were extracted. Four out of the 11 sponges supported higher fauna abundance compared to their surrounding substrate.


Photographs of the sponges were taken in situ prior to collection with a numbered calico bag being placed over the entire sponge. A flat blade scraper was used to remove the sponge from the substrate and then sealed underwater. Sponge size (volume), % of internal space, minimum diameter of internal space, and gross morphological complexity were determined.


Substrate type included sand, rubble, consolidated reef and macroalgae. See Chin etal (2020) for further descriptions of the methods and materials.
