Hypothesis 1: Porifera is a monophyletic group Porifera is the sister-group to Eumetazoa Hexactinellida is more closely related to Calcarea Demospongea is equally closely related to both Hexactinellida and Calcarea. Hypothesis 2: Porifera is a paraphyletic group Calcarea is more closely related to Eumetazoa than Demospongea or Hexactinellida Hexactinellida is sister-group to the clade formed by Calcarea and Eumetazoa Hexactinellida is more closely related to Calcarea and Eumetazoa than to Demospongea
