It forms the base of the lyssakid family Amphispongiidae Rauff, 1894. It has been suggested that the fossil may be an alga (Finks, 1967) which is now accepted, and Amphispongia is here redescribed as a dasycladacean alga. A new tribe Amphispongieae comprising Amphispongia Salter, 1861 and Anomaloides Ulrich, 1878 is erected. </abstract> <note type='statement of responsibility'> [by] Matthew H.
