Chiridota hydrothermica is a species of sea cucumber in the family Chiridotidae. It has a cosmopolitan distribution.^[2]^[3]^[4] It occupies all three types of chemosynthetic ecosystems; hydrothermal vents, cold seeps, and organic fall. Unlike many other animals in similar environments, they do not host chemosynthetic bacteria.^[5]
