The complete mitochondrial genome of Protankyra verrilli Théel, 1886 (Apodida: Synaptidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA Part B: Resources
In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome of Protankyra verrilli. The 16,970 bp mitogenome contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes (duplications of trnL and trnS), and two ribosomal RNA genes.

Highly rearranged gene orders and rapid evolutionary rates in the mitochondrial genomes of Apodida (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is a frequently-used tool for phylogenetic and evolutionary studies among metazoans, however, it was still poorly represented in some invertebrate groups, including holothurians. Apodida is one of the most ancient orders

Deep-sea holothurians (Echinodermata, Holothuroidea) from the Colombian Southern Caribbean Sea [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2020
Fifteen morphotypes of deep-sea holothurians were documented by photography or videography at depths of 596–2,566 m, using Remote Operated Vehicles (ROV) video surveys and towed camera transects, during hydrocarbon exploratory activities in the

Origin of the holothurians (Echinodermata) derived by constructional morphology [PDF]

open access: yesFossil Record, 2002
According to a recent hypothesis, the holothurians originated by a process of extreme paedomorphism as "giant larvae", with "de novo" developed radial systems.

Sophistication in a seemingly simple creature: a review of wild holothurian nutrition in marine ecosystems

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 273-298, February 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Holothurians are marine invertebrates that are among the most widespread benthic megafauna communities by both biomass and abundance in shallow‐water and deep‐sea ecosystems, their functions supporting important ecological services worldwide. Despite their simple appearance as sea cucumbers, holothurians show a wide range of feeding practices.
