Has sponge growing on it, but what’s intriguing is that on this rock and few others the sponge was only found growing over this particular bryozoan and nowhere else on the rock, indicating there may be some sort of relation between these species. Schizoporella and Conopeum colonies were found untouched underneath rocks, but Cryptosula was occasionally found smothered by this sponge.
