In life this stalk-like support isanchored in the mud at the sea-bottom by means of barbs andhooks at the lower end of the spicules. An interesting peculiarityof this sponge is its association with tiny Zoophytes (Palythoa)which are always found growing upon its stem (see Fig. 22).This is an illustration of the phenomenon of symbiosis, indicatingan association of two animal forms for their mutual advantage. Suborder Dictyonina.—The two specimens of Farrea occaCarter (see Fig. 14, p. 230) and Aphrocallistes show particularlywell the lattice-like framework peculiar to this group, and alsothe characteristic manner of growth of these sponges. The glass sponges are all universally distributed in the deepwaters of tropical seas. Most of the specimens exhibited in thisMuseum were collected in the Sagami Sea, an arm of the Sea ofJapan.

The native method of collecting these sponges is interesting.An apparatus called a dabo line is used. This is a long lineabout an eighth of an inch in thickness, to which smaller branchlines or snoods are attached at short intervals. Each snoodends in a brass or iron wire hook with a barbed point. The dabo lines are coiled in baskets placed in the bottom of a boatmanned by five or six men. The hooks are stuck in a rowaround the edge of the basket, and as the line is uncoiled, aresuccessively unfastened by one of the men.
