Abstract
Sea cucumbers under the genus Actinopyga are among the commonly exploited species in the Philippines. At present, there are five species belonging to this genus in the country namely, A. echinites, A. lecanora, A. mauritiana, A. miliaris and A. obesa (Schoppe 2000, Akamine 2005, Kerr et al. 2006, Olavides et al. 2010, Purcell et al. 2012, Jontila et al. 2014). Recent surveys in different sites in Palawan did not show the occurrence of other Actinopyga species (Dolorosa and Jontila 2012, Collantes 2013, Pitong 2013, Sabay 2013, Saclet 2013, Dolorosa 2015).
