Chiridota heheva

Chiridota heheva is a species of sea cucumber in the family Chiridotidae.

The species is known from deeper regions in the Western Atlantic Ocean, but has a cosmopolitan distribution.

[1][2][3] It occupies all three types of chemosynthetic ecosystems; hydrothermal vents, cold seeps, and organic fall.

Unlike many other animals in similar environments, they do not host chemosynthetic bacteria.
