Arturia adusta is a species of sea sponge in the family Clathrinidae found in Australia.[1] The species was first described as Clathrina adusta by Gert Wörheide & John Hooper in 1999,[1][2] and was assigned to the genus, Arthuria, in 2016 by Oliver Voigt & Wörheide.[3][4] However, the name Arthuria had already been used (for a mollusc) and hence the genus name was changed to Arturia.[1]
