Clathrina jorunnae is a species of calcareous sponge from Norway.[2] It is only known from Trondheimsfjord, its type locality, where it was dredged from depths of 25–250 m (82–820 ft). The specimen was attached to a bryozoan of the genus Reteporella. The species is named after Jorunn Berg, Hans Tore Rapp's grandmother, who introduced Rapp to marine animals.[1]
