Abstract

Holothuria pericax Selenka, 1867 belonging to the family Holothuriidae in the order Aspirochirotida of the subclass Aspidochirotacea is new to Korean fauna. This species was redescribed with figures based on the specimen collected at 16 m deep in north-west Munseom, Seogwipo. A key to the genus was presented. Fifteen species of holothuroids have so far been reported in Jejudo Island of Korea.
