20230914_zia_c218_006 September 14, 2023, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia: A team of scientists from the Queensland Museum has made a remarkable discovery, of four rare, delicate sponges found in the depths of the ocean. These sponges were located on seamounts off the coast of Queensland and Tasmania, rising from four kilometres below the ocean's surface to just one kilometre down..Dr. Merrick Ekins, the Queensland Museum Network Collection Manager specialising in Sessile Marine Invertebrates, described these sponges as having razor-sharp spicules that elegantly form intricate rosettes..''These exquisite sponges mark the first documented instances of the genus Hamacantha (Vomerula) within the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone,'' Dr. Ekins exclaimed..The discovery of these four new species has expanded the known species within the subgenus Vomerula to a total of 26..Hamacantha (Vomerula) novacula is a fragile, lace-like, encrusting sponge was discovered attached to a rock, boasting a pristine white and translucent appearance. It earned the name Hamacantha (Vomerula) novacula, in reference to its remarkably sharp fimbria, resembling a shaving knife. ''Novacula'' is derived from Latin and translates to ''sharp knife.'' Hamacantha (Vomerula) melliflura is another delicate, lace-like, encrusting sponge, Hamacantha (Vomerula) melliflura, was christened for its resemblance to honey's flowing nature and the honeycomb-like texture adorning its surface. ''Melliflura'' signifies ''flowing with honey.''.Hamacantha (Vomerula) ridleyi is a fragile, encrusting sponge showcases a smooth surface devoid of visible oscules.

alb3666275 Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae: The Column of Trajan. Artist: Anonymous, Italian, 16th century; After Antonio da Labacco (Italian, near Vigevano ca. 1495-after 1567). Dimensions: mount: 26 5/16 x 19 1/2 in. (66.8 x 49.6 cm)sheet: 21 1/8 x 14 3/8 in. (53.6 x 36.5 cm). Publisher: Antonio Lafreri (French, Orgelet, Franche-Comte ca. 1512-1577 Rome). Series/Portfolio: Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae. Date: 16th century.This print comes from the museum's copy of the Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae (The Mirror of Roman Magnificence) The Speculum found its origin in the publishing endeavors of Antonio Salamanca and Antonio Lafreri. During their Roman publishing careers, the two foreign publishers - who worked together between 1553 and 1563 - initiated the production of prints recording art works, architecture and city views related to Antique and Modern Rome. The prints could be bought individually by tourists and collectors, but were also purchased in larger groups which were often bound together in an album. In 1573, Lafreri commissioned a title page for this purpose, which is where the title 'Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae' first appears. Lafreri envisioned an ideal arrangement of the prints in 7 different categories, but during his lifetime, never appears to have offered one standard, bound set of prints. Instead, clients composed their own selection from the corpus to be bound, or collected a group of prints over time. When Lafreri died, two-third of the existing copper plates went to the Duchetti family (Claudio and Stefano), while another third was distributed among several publishers. The Duchetti appear to have standardized production, offering a more or less uniform version of the Speculum to their clients. The popularity of the prints also inspired other publishers in Rome to make copies however, and to add new prints to the corpus. The museum's copy of the Speculum entered the collection as a group of 3 albums with inlaid engravings and etchings. The prints have since been removed, but the original place of each print within the album is contained in the accession number: 41.72(volume.place).Originally volume 1, plate 95 in the scrapbook. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
