Abstract
A new marine sponge in the family Tethyidae, Tethya uljinensis n. sp. was collected from Uljin, Korea in 2007. Halicometes koreana in the family Tethyidae was redescribed. Tethya uljiensis n. sp. is closely to Tethya simi. in skeletal structure and spicule composition. But, it differs in the size of spicules(stronyloxea) and shape of oxyaster.
