Stichopus cf. horrens is an exceptional sea cucumber species in its taxonomy, ecology, fisheries, and potential for culture. In the Philippines, it is commonly reported and considered a medium- to high-value commercial species. Phylogenetic analysis of

The Stichopodidae comprise a diverse assemblage of holothuroids most of which occur in the Indo-Pacific. Phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial gene (COI, 16S rRNA) sequence for 111 individuals (7 genera, 17 species) clarified taxonomic uncertainties,

Tropical commercial sea cucumber Stichopus horrens is extensively distributed throughout the tropical Indo-Pacific region, and wild stocks are severely depleted over the past decade. This study firstly presented preliminary results on the spawning, the
