Abstract

Sea cucumber fisheries occur worldwide, from monospecific temperate fisheries to multispecific tropical ones. These fisheries currently involve 49 species (Table 1) that yield products such as bechede-mer and which provide an important source of income to coastal communities. The trade in sea cucumbers has resulted in many species being overharvested, which endangers their natural viability, and which has lead to debates about their conservation and sustainability in various fora in recent years (e.g. ASCAM and CITES workshops).
