Metabolic rates are significantly lower in abyssal Holothuroidea than in shallow-water Holothuroidea [PDF]
Recent analyses of metabolic rates in fishes, echinoderms, crustaceans and cephalopods have concluded that bathymetric declines in temperature- and mass-normalized metabolic rate do not result from resource-limitation (e.g. oxygen or food/chemical energy)

Aquatic Antagonists: Sea Cucumbers (Holothuroidea) [PDF]
Sea cucumbers are sausage-shaped aquatic creatures living on the ocean floors across the world. They are considered a food delicacy in many countries but also are known to have many beneficial pharmaceutical properties; however, sea cucumbers also contain a dangerous component called holothurin, which has been shown to have a negative impact on the ...

Glowing sea cucumbers: Bioluminescence in the Holothuroidea
Bioluminescence, light production by a living organism, is often seen in deep-sea benthic animals, including sea cucumbers. In this chapter, we review holothuroid bioluminescence from taxonomic, behavioral, and biochemical perspectives and describe new ...
