Neoernsta is a genus of calcareous sponges in the family Dendyidae.[1] It was originally erected in 2013 as the genus Ernstia to contain five species previously assigned to Clathrina. This name was later replaced by Ernsta and then Neoernsta to avoid homonyms with previously described genera. The genus name honors German naturalist Ernst Haeckel for his contributions towards sponge taxonomy and phylogeny.[2]
