Abstract
The calcareous heteractinid sponge Wewokella solida Girty, 1911, is reported from Colorado for the first time. Triactine-based skeletons are well preserved and dermal and gastral layers are composed of smaller spicules than those in the main wall of the many specimens. A fragment of an unnamed demosponge, possibly related to Heliospongia Girty, 1908, and fragments of root tufts occur with Wewokella in the Middle Pennsylvanian Minturn Formation near McCoy, in Eagle County, Colorado.
