Antho (Acarnia) lithophoenix is een sponssoort in de taxonomische indeling van de gewone sponzen (Demospongiae). Het lichaam van de spons bestaat uit kiezelnaalden en sponginevezels, en is in staat om veel water op te nemen. De spons behoort tot het geslacht Antho en behoort tot de familie Microcionidae. De wetenschappelijke naam van de soort werd voor het eerst geldig gepubliceerd in 1927 door de Laubenfels.

A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Antho lithophoenix has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA1 detections
Where the DNA of Antho lithophoenix was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
