Asteroids, ophiuroids and holothurians from the southeastern Weddell Sea (Southern Ocean)
ZooKeys, 2014 Until the early 1980s, the composition and distribution of the asteroid (starfish), ophiuroid (brittle star) and holothurian (sea cucumber) bottom fauna of the southeastern Weddell Sea was virtually unknown.

Novel Circular Single-Stranded DNA Viruses among an Asteroid, Echinoid and Holothurian (Phylum: Echinodermata). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Echinoderms are prone to large population fluctuations that can be mediated by pervasive disease events. For the majority of echinoderm disease events the causative pathogen is unknown.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

The sea cucumber Holothuria lineata Ludwig, 1875 (Holothuroidea, Aspidochirotida, Holothuriidae) re-described from the newly found type [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2019 A re-description of the little-known holothurian species Holothuria (Lessonothuria) lineata Ludwig, 1875 is given. It is based on the single recovered type specimen and an individual recently collected on Glorioso Islands, near Madagascar.

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.Brachiopods are able to repair drill holes made in their shells by predatory gastropods. However, in most samples examined, drill hole repair is rare to absent: Presumably the drilling attack is usually fatal to the prey. The shells of short‐looped brachiopod Abyssothyris wyvillei, from deep‐sea dredge samples from two localities in the Tasman Sea, New
