All five classes of echinoderms were observed by visual census, photographed and later identified. About 100 species are reported, including a few unidentified ones which require further studies. The Holothuroidea and Ophiuroidea are the most diverse. One new species, the asterinid Aquilonastra chantalae O'Loughlin and McKenzie (2013), was discovered in addition to several new records of echinoderms. The illegal fishery targeting holothurians, which are presently highly valuable resources in this zone, is discussed. %B Îles Éparses (French Scattered Islands, SW Indian Ocean) as Reference Ecosystems for Environmental Research : International Coastal Symposium 2016 %8 2016/03/06-11 %$ 036
