This paper reports on some sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea) in the collections of the NHMUK, taken off the coast of Ghana. Most result from collections around Accra during the years 1949-52. A couple of other species are included. Altogether six species are here reported, viz. Holothuria (Holothuria) dakarensis Panning, 1939; Holothuria (Semperothuria) imitans Ludwig, 1875; Holothuria (Vaneyothuria) lentiginosa lentiginosa (von Marenzeller,1893); Stereoderma congoana (Heding, 1935); Ocnus cruciformis Thandar n. sp. and Leptopentacta cabindaensis (Cherbonnier, 1949) herein transferred to a new genus Cherbocnus Thandar erected for this purpose. Another West African species, Cladodactyla monodi Cherbonnier, 1950 is referred to Stereoderma. All cucumariids are West African forms whereas the holothuriids are shared with the North-West Atlantic Ocean.
本文报道了英国自然历史博物馆（NHMUK）收藏的一些采自加纳海岸的海参（海参纲）。大多数标本来自1949年至1952年间阿克拉周边地区的采集。还包括其他几个物种。本文共报道了六个物种，即：达喀尔海参（Holothuria (Holothuria) dakarensis Panning，1939年）；仿海参（Holothuria (Semperothuria) imitans Ludwig，1875年）；雀斑海参（Holothuria (Vaneyothuria) lentiginosa lentiginosa (von Marenzeller，1893年)）；刚果立皮海参（Stereoderma congoana (Heding，1935年)）；十字形奥库海参（Ocnus cruciformis Thandar新物种）以及卡宾达细五角瓜参（Leptopentacta cabindaensis (Cherbonnier，1949年)），在此将其转移至为此设立的新属切尔博克参属（Cherbocnus Thandar）。另一种西非物种，单氏枝指海参（Cladodactyla monodi Cherbonnier，1950年）被归入立皮海参属。所有瓜参科物种均为西非种类，而海参科物种则与西北大西洋共有。
