    Twenty three Holothurians species from the lagoon and t he reefs of New Caledonia are described. Six are new for science : Actinopyga albonigra nov. sp., Bohadschia maculisparsa nov. sp., Holothuria (Mertensiothuria) artensis nov sp., Holothuria (Thymiosycia) altaturricula nov. sp., Holothuria (Thymiosycia) conusalba nov. sp. and Synaptula media nov. sp.
