Abstract
new species Iotrochota rutzleri n. sp. (Demospongiae: Poecilosclerida: Iotrochotidae) was collected from intertidal zone, Sinyangri, Seongsanpo, Jejudo Island, Korea during 2008-2009. Iotrochota rutzleri n. sp. is similar to I. baculifera Ridley, 1884 in composition of spicules and skeletal structure. However, it is different in size of spicules, growth form and colour. All spicules of this new species are smaller than those of the latter.
