This research presents three new species of carnivorous sponges from the family Cladorhizidae from the Great Barrier Reef, in Queensland, Australia: Abyssocladia falkor sp. nov., Abyssocladia jeanvaceleti sp. nov. and Axoniderma wanda sp. nov. They were collected by ROV during the expedition FK200802-Seamounts, Canyons & Reefs of the Coral Sea Cruise on the RV Falkor from the Schmidt Ocean Institute. In addition, the ROV collection of two complete specimens enabled the redescription of two other Australian species of carnivorous sponge (Chondrocladia (Chondrocladia) zygainadentonis Ekins et al., 2020a and Asbestopluma (Asbestopluma) maxisigma Ekins et al., 2020a), previously known from the East coast of Australia based on incomplete specimens.
本研究从澳大利亚昆士兰州大堡礁的 Cladorhizidae 科中介绍了三种新的肉食性海绵：Abyssocladia falkor sp. nov.、Abyssocladia jeanvaceleti sp. nov. 和 Axoniderma wanda sp. nov. 它们是由 Schmidt 海洋研究所的 Falkor 号 ROV 在 FK200802-珊瑚海海山、峡谷和珊瑚礁考察航次中采集的。此外，ROV 的两个完整标本的采集使两种其他澳大利亚肉食性海绵（Chondrocladia (Chondrocladia) zygainadentonis Ekins et al., 2020a 和 Asbestopluma (Asbestopluma) maxisigma Ekins et al., 2020a）得以重新描述，此前它们仅基于不完整的标本在澳大利亚东海岸被发现。
