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
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.

Biological surveys reveal unexpectedly high faunal diversity at Nankai Trough methane seeps
Abstract Cold seeps are chemosynthesis‐based ecosystems powered by microbial primary production that support diverse and specialized faunal assemblages in the deep sea. Despite Nankai Trough in Japan being a geologically active margin hosting numerous seeps, much of the faunal diversity remains undocumented.

Functional effects of the hadal sea cucumber Elpidia atakama (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea, Elasipodida) reflect small-scale patterns of resource availability [PDF]
Holothuroidea represent the dominant benthic megafauna in hadal trenches (similar to 6,000-11,000 m), but little is known about their behaviour and functional role at such depths.

Biomechanics of Adhesion in Sea Cucumber Cuvierian Tubules (Echinodermata, Holothuroidea) [PDF]
Several species of sea cucumbers, all belonging to a single family, possess a peculiar and specialized defense system, the Cuvierian tubules. It is mobilized when the animal is mechanically stimulated, resulting in the discharge of a few white filaments, the tubules. In seawater, the expelled tubules lengthen considerably and become sticky upon contact
