Description
This dataset contains a list of species of Ceramiaceae present at the coast of Kenya, Tanzania and the Seychelles sampled between 1985 and 1997. Most specimens have been collected by wading or snorkeling. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Roels, T. (1998). Taxonomisch-morfologische studie van enkel genera van de Ceramiaceae langs de Oost-Afrikaanse kust = Taxonomic-morphological study of a few genera of the Ceramiaceae along the East-African coast..
