"Sponges (phylum Porifera) are benthic filter-feeding animals that play an important role in nutrient cycling and habitat provision in the deep sea. Sponges collected between 2010 and 2014 during annual multispecies trawl surveys conducted by Fisheries and Oceans, Canada (DFO) in Baffin Bay, Davis Strait and portions of Hudson Strait were taxonomically examined. This report summarizes sponges from the family Crellidae (class Demospongiae, subclass Heteroscleromorpha, order Poecilosclerida, family Crellidae) and family Myxillidae (class Demospongiae, subclass Heteroscleromorpha, order Poecilosclerida, family Myxillidae)”--Abstract, p. iv.
