在这篇文章中，我们报道了一种科学上新的六线海绵，Tretopleura weijicus sp。 11月，采集于西北太平洋魏家海山，深度1995米。它的叶片状和分枝体形式，由多轴纵向链组成的初级领体框架，没有突触，并且存在节规则，表明其属于 Uncinateridae Reiswig, 2002，这也得到了来自 COI 和 16S 序列的分子系统发育证据的支持。没有肿胀的真皮刺或规则的五肽，并且存在两种类型的六角星，使其成为一个新物种。应收集更多的标本来修改属性状。
In this article we report on a hexactinellid sponge new to science, Tretopleura weijicus sp. nov., which was collected from the Weijia Seamount in the northwestern Pacific Ocean at a depth of 1995 m. Its blade-like and branching body form, the primary choanosomal framework consisting of multiaxial longitudinal strands without synapticula, and the presence of sceptrules suggest placement within the family Uncinateridae Reiswig, 2002, which is also supported by molecular phylogenetic evidence from COI and 16S sequences. The absence of swollen dermal spurs or regular pentactins and the presence of two types of discohexasters characterize it as a new species. More specimens should be collected to revise the generic characters.
