Cover Photograph: A photograph of Oscarella lobularis in a typical biocoenosis. This common and easily accessible sponge is characterized by relatively simple histology and cell composition, absence of skeleton, and strongly pronounced epithelial structure. On pages tkk‐tkk, Ereskovsky et al, detail the specific features that make O. lobularis a promising homoscleromorph sponge model for evolutionary and developmental researchers.
