Holothuria scabra is an important tropical sea cucumber species in South China. Combining methods of thermal stimulation, dry treatment and powerful water jet, etc. , we artificially induced the spawning and successfully bred H. scabra for the first time in China. During April ～June, 2010, among 10 batches of 243 H. scabra bloodstocks, 5 batches of parent H. scabra succeeded in sperm releasing and spawning ( spawning rate: 50％ ); 1 652. 72 × 104 eggs were produced and 1 226. 74 × 104 larvae were hatched out ( hatching rate: 74. 23％ ). At water temperature of 27.5 ～30. 0 ℃, it took 32. 5 h for the fertilized eggs to finish embryo development. We chose some larvae for 21-day rearing and obtained 19. 43 × 104 early juveniles ( size: 0. 1 cm) with a survival of 16. 7％; after 32-day rearing, 2.46 × 104 late juveniles (size: O. 3 ～0. 5 cra) were obtained with a survival of 2. 12％. The study is important for the future natural H. scabra population recovery in Beibu Gulf and its industrialized breeding in South China.%糙海参(Holothuria scabra)是中国南方优质的热带海参经济品种,试验首次成功在国内综合运用升温等多种刺激方法人工诱导糙海参产卵,并进行了批量人工育苗.2010年4~6月,共进行人工催产试验10次,催产亲参243头,5次试验产卵,催产成功率50%,共获得受精卵1 652.72×104粒,孵出糙海参幼体1 226.74×104头,总体孵化率74.23%;在水温27.5~30.0 ℃条件下,受精卵完成胚胎发育需要32.5 h;利用其中部分幼体开展后期人工育苗,经过21 d培育,获得糙海参早期稚参(0.1 cm)19.43×104头,苗种培育成活率16.7%;经过32 d培育获得大规格后期稚参苗(0.3~0.5 cm)2.46×104头,培育成活率2.12%.试验的成功对下一步开展北部湾海域糙海参的天然种群恢复和在华南地区进行糙海参的人工养殖与开发具有重要意义.
