Seismic Disturbance, Productivity and Depth Shape Hadal Benthic Habitats and Biodiversity in the Japan, Ryukyu and Izu‐Ogasawara Trenches (Northwest Pacific Ocean)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim This study characterises benthic habitats and associated biodiversity in three Japanese subduction trenches, and explores the effects of trench‐specific differences in large‐scale seismic events, disturbance and productivity regimes on habitat structure and assemblage composition.

Sphingolipids of Asteroidea and Holothuroidea: Structures and Biological Activities

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2021
Sphingolipids are complex lipids widespread in nature as structural components of biomembranes. Commonly, the sphingolipids of marine organisms differ from those of terrestrial animals and plants.

Metapopulation‐scale resilience to disease‐induced mass mortality in a keystone predator: From stasis to instability

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Mass mortality from disease epidemics challenges the resistance and resilience of populations and communities. Assessing the impacts and consequences of such events is crucially dependent on long‐term datasets. In 2013–2016, sea star wasting disease (SSWD) caused population‐wide crashes of the archetypal keystone species, the sea star Pisaster

The Becach-de-Mer resources of India [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
Beche-de-mer or the cured holothurian is considered a delicacy in some of the South-East Asian countries. The entire quantity of about 30,000 kg produced annually at present in the country is exported since it is not consumed locally.

On Some Plymouth Holothurians [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Structural Characterization and Physicochemical Property of a Purified Fucosylated Glycosaminoglycan Sulfate From Holothuria leucospilota

open access: yeseFood, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
(1) The main chain structure of Holothuria leucospilota polysaccharides (HLP‐Ⅰ) was presumed to be roughly as →3)‐β‐d‐GalpNAc‐(1→4)‐β‐d‐GlcpA‐(1→. (2) with T‐Fucp on the branched chain or a rockulose chain consisting of →3,4)‐α‐l‐Fucp‐(1→. (3) HLP‐Ⅰ showed high amorphous platelet content and disordered arrangement, while the molecule adapted a sphere ...

Taxonomic position of holothurian Eupentactafraudatrix (Echinodermata, Holothuroidea). [PDF]

open access: yesZookeys
Samples of the holothurian Eupentacta fraudatrix (Djakonov & Baranova in Djakonov, Baranova & Saveljeva, 1958) from the Sea of Japan were studied and the relationships of the genera Eupentacta and Sclerodactyla, as well as related taxa, were evaluated on the basis of phylogenetic analysis of the mitochondrial DNA COI and 16S rRNA genes.
