Hi Francois,
 
There seem to be 3 species here.
The first I'd suggest Holothuria dakarensis (or poss. H. tubulosa - Panning
described dakarensis as a subspecies of tubulosa)

Hello all,


  I received these cuke pictures taken from Dakar, Sénégal by a French
naturalist who is getting worried about Chinese prospectors who want to
harvest them. I'm not familiar with the fauna, but maybe some of you are. Do
you have any IDs?


  Thanks,
