Abstract
    Morphological differences of Spongia officinalis were evaluated at the intra‐ and inter‐population level both in time and space. Body shape analysis in a population from Portofino (W. Mediterranean) revealed that no significant morphological differences occurred at the two depth levels, whereas body size fluctuations, remodelling of the aquiferous system and fragmentation processes were common phenomena during a long‐term study. The morphological comparison in two populations from Crete (E. Mediterranean) and Portofino revealed a divergence in macro‐morphological traits, whereas notable homogeneity of their diagnostic skeletal micro‐traits was observed. These data suggest that gross morphology can play a key role as a diagnostic trait in the taxonomy of Mediterranean populations.
