Validity Hyatt’s name is not an available name (as it has a fourth name, ICZN art. 45.5). Apart from Von Lendenfeld’s assignment of this to Euspongia oficinalis var. rotunda, there are no other suggestions in the literature. I propose to assign this material from the Caribbean region provisionally to Spongia (Spongia) barbara Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864 because of its hard consistency (‘dura’), a typical property of that species.
