Holothuria tigris Brandt, 1835 View in CoL

Taxonomic decision for synonymy: Panning (1935).

Type data: Status and whereabouts undetermined; type locality Uleai Is., Caroline Archipelago.

Taxonomic description: Cf. Brandt, 1835: 55 (in Latin).

Remarks: The original description clearly states that the dorsum has transverse dorsal stripes that can be interrupted. As this conforms with H. scabra , H. tigris best remains a junior subjective synonym.
