echinoderms, which are exclusively marine
in their habitat. Holothurians inhabit different
depths of the ocean as well as different habitats
such as rocky shores, sandy beaches, muddy
flats, coral reefs and mangrove swamps. Out of
154 genera and 1,150 species recorded in the
world, 62 genera and 160 species are available
in India; among them, 88 are recorded in
Andaman and Nicobar Islands, 39 in the Gulf of
Mannar and 32 in Lakshadweep.
