Description
These inventories list marine species observations performed in the Roscoff area since 1830. Observations result from a review of historical literature and observations made by voluntary contributors and the scientific teams of the Roscoff Marine Station. Taxonomic groups documented in the inventories are macroalgae, marine benthic macroinvertebrates and fish. Inventories provide information (when known) about: location, collection date, collection type, collector, and species biology (habitat, reproduction period).
