Sphingolipids of Asteroidea and Holothuroidea: Structures and Biological Activities [PDF]
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.

Molecular phylogeny of extant Holothuroidea (Echinodermata) [PDF]
Sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea) are a morphologically diverse, ecologically important, and economically valued clade of echinoderms; however, the understanding of the overall systematics of the group remains controversial. Here, we present a phylogeny of extant Holothuroidea assessed with maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian approaches ...

Confusion will be my epitaph: genome-scale discordance stifles phylogenetic resolution of Holothuroidea. [PDF]
Sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea) are a diverse clade of echinoderms found from intertidal waters to the bottom of the deepest trenches. Their reduced skeletons and limited number of phylogenetically-informative traits have long obfuscated morphological ...

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Benthodytes gosarsi Gebruk 2008 (echinodermata: holothuroidea: elasipodida) from deep-sea environments [PDF]
Deep-sea organisms exhibit remarkable adaptations to extreme environmental conditions. It is important to elucidate the survival mechanisms of deep-sea life by exploring their genetic characteristics and origins.

Structural diversity of triterpene glycosides produced by sea cucumbers or holothurians (Holothuroidea, Echinodermata) is extremely high, although all of them are either lanostane derivatives or, rarely, products of their molecular rearrangements.

Histologic Examination of a Sea Pig (Scotoplanes sp.) Using Bright Field Light Microscopy
Sea pigs (Scotoplanes spp.) are deep-sea dwelling sea cucumbers of the phylum Echinodermata, class Holothuroidea, and order Elasipodida. Few reports are available on the microscopic anatomy of these deep-sea animals.
