Effects of Gallic Acid Supplementation on Intestinal Function and Gut Microbial Community Structure in Holothuria leucospilota

Aquaculture Nutrition, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Gallic acid (GA) is a plant‐derived polyphenol with antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, yet its efficacy as a functional feed additive in sea cucumbers remains unclear. Here, we systematically evaluated graded dietary GA supplementation in the tropical sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota by integrating growth performance, body‐wall nutritional ...

On Some Plymouth Holothurians [PDF]

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1914
Some of the specific and differential characters of these two species have already been enumerated by Pace (1). Subsequently Norman (2) denied that these two forms were different, so that the literature on them was left in an unsatisfactory state. On investigating these two forms, however, I have obtained sufficient evidence-from the characters of the ...

Cold Seep Communities in the Sea of Japan Are Species‐Poor and Dominated by a New Species of Provannid Snail

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The Sea of Japan is a semi‐enclosed marginal sea in the northwestern Pacific whose bathyal communities exhibit a depauperate species diversity due to anoxic events during the last glacial maximum. Cold seeps associated with chemosynthetic ecosystems were discovered in this region over three decades ago, yet their fauna have not been characterised. Here,

Length–Weight Relationships of Commercial Species in the Eastern Australian Sea Cucumber Fishery

Diversity
Biological data, such as length–weight relationships, are essential for the management and stewardship of harvested individuals. Sea cucumbers are a lucrative industry globally but many of the associated fisheries lack species-level biological data ...

Fatty Acids Composition of Two Species – and

Natural Product Communications, 2007
The fatty acid compositions of the lipids of two holothurian species ( Cucumaria japonica and C. okhotensis ) were investigated. High contents of 12-methyltetradecanoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid (up to 17.7 % and 28.4% of total fatty acids ...

Exploring the Antiparasitic Activity of the Sea Cucumber Isostichopus sp. aff. badionotus From the Northern Coast of Colombia Against Trypanosoma cruzi

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, remains a neglected tropical infection with limited therapeutic options. Sea cucumbers are recognized as rich sources of bioactive sulfated metabolites with potential antiparasitic properties; however, information on the chemistry and trypanocidal activity of Caribbean Isostichopus species is still scarce ...

Length–Weight and Body Condition Relationships of the Exploited Sea Cucumber Pearsonothuria graeffei

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Fishery stock assessments are often based on morphometric data from underwater diver surveys and landing surveys. Measurements of body length are usually converted to estimates of body weight, yet length–weight equations might differ among localities. We

Bioaccumulation and Depuration of Emamectin Benzoate and Oxytetracycline in the European Black Sea Cucumber (Holothuria forskali): Implications for Aquaculture Integration

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.
European black sea cucumber (Holothuria forskali) used in bioaccumulation and depuration trials after ingesting salmon pellets treated with veterinary therapeutants emamectin benzoate and oxytetracycline. The study provides the first kinetic data for these veterinary residues in this species, supporting responsible integration of deposit‐feeders into ...

The effect of diet on the growth and energy budget of juvenile Neostichopus grammatus

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1235-1251, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Providing optimum energy levels in diets for sea cucumbers is essential, as an excess or inadequate energy level can lead to a reduced growth rate. This study investigated the effect of diets on the growth and energy budget of juvenile sea cucumber Neostichopus grammatus for twelve weeks.

Non-destructive tissue sampling and the use of PCR-RFLPs in two edible sea cucumbers from the north-eastern Atlantic, Holothuria mammata Grube, 1840 and H. sanctori Delle Chiaje, 1823 (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea)

The European Zoological Journal, 2018
Historically, the harvest and consumption of sea cucumbers have been largely restricted to Asian countries. Recently, however, the western world has witnessed a rapid growth of holothurian-related industries, and Holothuria mammata Grube, 1840 and H ...
