This data set provides a list of species of the genus <i>Padina</i> that were sampled at the coasts of Saudi-Arabia, Oman, Socotra, Kenya, Zanzibar (Tanzania), Seychelles, Mauritius, La Réunion and South Africa between 1985 and 1999. In total, eleven species were identified. The list also contains the herbarium codes of the species. Sampling was done by snorkeling, walking or SCUBA diving. The algae were removed from the substrate using a knife and put in plastic bags or lobster bags. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Muylle, J. (2000).

This dataset contains a list of the presence, habitats and herbarium vouchers of the species of the Siphonocladales sampled at the Kenyan coast. Field work was carried out on a yearly basis from July 1985 till September 1992. Sampling was done by walking or wading at low tide and by snorkeling at high tide. All algae were collected in separate pots or bags. All specimens were determined with a Reichert light microscope and a Wild stereoscopic binocular. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Verstraete, H. (1993). De Siphonocladales (Chlorophyta) van de Keniaanse kust. The Siphonocladales (Chlorophyta) of the Kenyan coast..

This dataset contains a list of intertidal diatom species sampled at Gazi Bay (Kenya) in September 1991. Samples were taken from the upper 1 centimeter at each station using a Perspex insert tube (diameter 22mm). Identification of the diatoms was done on light- and electron microscopy.
