It might be Holothuria (Thymiosycia) arenicola Semper,1868.

See The Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 1995 43(1): 217-220 by Qaseem Tahera and Nasima M. Tirmizi

Nithyanandan Manickam

Dear Dr. Kazmi,

Yes it is Holothuria (Thymiosycia) arenicola. I agree with Dr. Tahera.

Best Regards,

Dear Kazmi,

I doubt whether the species is Holothuria (Thymiosycia) arenicola, since H.arenicola I have seen is pale yellow in colour with distinct spicule arrangement and having only three rows of brown spots on the dorsal side. Please give more pictures from different angles ( dorsal, ventral and lateral side ) for morphological features . Also, you can observe the spicules from different body parts for confirmation.

Best regards,

ASHA
