“…Results showed that Station 2 had relatively higher species diversity (H'= 1.37 ± 0.14) compared to Station 1 (0.79 ± 0.12), which could be due to habitat preference in terms of substrate structure, seagrass composition, and food availability (Manuputty et al, 2019). Its substrate types were sandy-muddy with seagrass and a few portions of rocks.…”

The species composition, abundance and distribution of sea cucumbers in the intertidal zone of Cab-ilan Island, Dinagat, Dinagat Islands, Philippines were assessed using a transect quadrat method, with a size of 1x1 meter, on a transect line with a length of 80 meters. Sampling was done at the two identified stations in three replicates. A total of 10 species were found namely Holothuria scabra, H. leucospilota, H. fuscopunctata, H. hilla, H. fuscocinerea, H. pervicax, Actinopyga echinites, A. mauritiana, A. miliaris and Bohadschia marmorata. The most abundant species found were the Holothuria scabra, H. hilla and Actinopyga echinites. A. echinites was the only common species found in both stations. Results revealed that there was no significant difference in salinity between stations (P>0.05). However, species diversity, temperature and pH differ significantly in Cab-ilan Islands (P<0.05). The Non-metric multi-dimensional scaling (nMDS) based on square-root transformed abundance data showed that a clear segregation of samples between two stations. Cluster analysis also revealed that there is no close relationship of the samples between Station 1 and Station 2. SIMPER analysis also showed that there was a high dissimilarity percentage in both stations. Some species of sea cucumbers and their distribution were influenced by physico-chemical parameters such as pH and temperature.

Research on the diversity of echinoderms at Drini Beach, Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta has been conducted from December 2020 to July 2021. This study aimed to determine the Echinoderm diversity index. The method sampling technique used belt transect with determination by purposive sampling with three stations in the intertidal zone based on substrate variations. Station 1 had coral substrate type, station 2 had seagrass substrate type, and sand substrate type for station 3. The sample in this study was the species of Echinoderms found in the station area. After sampling, it obtained 7 species of Echinoderms consisting of 3 classes, classified into 4 orders, and 6 families. The diversity index at all stations is low, followed by a low evenness value and a high dominance value. The species Ophiocoma erinaceus was dominant at stations one and two, while the species Tripneustes gratilla was dominant at stations three. Moreover, the most common habitat for echinoderms is This is due to the availability of abundant food, laying places for echinoderms, and shelter to avoid predators. In addition, it is also supported by temperature, pH, salinity, strong currents, and a good depth for Echinoderm habitat

“…Sea cucumbers are slow-moving marine creatures that inhabit various types of seabeds, including sand, sandy mud, and coral reefs [1][2]. Sea cucumbers belong to the Phylum Echinodermata [3] and consist of various genera [4]. In coral reef ecosystems and related environments, sea cucumbers play a crucial role in the food chain at various trophic levels [5][6].…”

Sea cucumbers belong to the Phylum Echinodermata with unique and diverse body shape. At the organism level, phenotype is an attribute or characteristic that can be seen, observed, or measured. The study of morphological characteristics in sea cucumbers in the Socah Waters of Bangkalan, Madura is necessary to obtain specific morphological data for different sea cucumber species, allowing us to recognize the distinctive features of each sea cucumber species in the Socah Waters, Bangkalan Regency, Madura. Morphological and morphometric data of a biota that will be used to determine the type and name of the species are preliminary data that are useful for reference in further research. However, of course, in order to determine the type and name of the species more accurately, it should be followed by genetic identification. The method employed in this research was survey method and random sampling techniques to collected various sea cucumber species from the waters. The measurement was conducted on each sea cucumber species, including total length measured from the anterior to the posterior, color, shape, and body patterns. The result showed that the Phyllophorus sp. has a round shape with a body size ranging from 3 to 8 cm, black in color, and small brown spots covering its entire body. The Colochirus sp. has an elongated shape with a body length of 6 to 10 cm, displaying a distinct red and orange body color and a body pattern consisting of ridges with papillae along these ridges. The red sea cucumber also possesses tentacles. The Paracaudina australis has an elongated shape with a transparent white body, featuring white and pinkish-red line patterns. In addition, data of the demographics of sea cucumber fishermen including age, level of education, length of experience, and the purpose of using sea cucumbers, is also needed as a reference for future studies. Knowledge of the demographics of fishermen is also needed to find the suitable method if in the future we will conduct socialization, training, or community service.
