Pink Sea Cucumber Holothuria aff. edulis This sea cucumber is usually found during the day and night on the shallow forereef slope to at least 30 m depth. It grows to about 30 cm in length and is entirely pink, though may appear grey at depth or when covered in a fine layer of sediment. It is usually identified as H. edulis, a smaller form from shallow water that is only pink ventrally. Hence, this may well be a different species, perhaps new. 29
Stubborn Sea Cucumber Holothuria pervicax This small common species, growing to 15 cm in length, is usually found on the reef flat under rubble during the day, being active and exposed only at night. It is mottled in grey and cream with variably sized papillae on its dorsum, often with a pinkish cast. It readily ejects copious amounts of Cuvierian tubules. 30
