Taxonomy Sim & Kim (1994) misspelled this name as Antho brathesardi; they gave Soest, 1986 as the author and cited Van Soest & de Weerdt, 1986 as reference (this is a paper on Haplosclerida only !). Moreover, the sponge they described is branching and they do not figure the crocae (but give 11-20 µm as measurement). This is obviously a different species (see Antho (Jia) ramosa Van Soest, Ruetzler & Sim, 2014. [details]
