Created for the management of data in multimedia, the software Linnaeus II has been used here for the preparation of a CD-ROM with a main objective: a tool for the identification of Porifera. Twenty-five species among the most conspicuous occurring in the São Sebastião Channel area were selected. For each species it is supplied: a description of the external and internal morphology, ecology, literature, list of specimens in the collection of the Museu Nacional/UFRJ and distribution in the São Sebastião Channel, in Brazil and in the world. A key for the identification of these species was elaborated allowing to start at different levels, depending on a greater or smaller familiarity of the user with one or another type of character (i.e.: color, form, consistency, spiculation).
