Description
Study on Platyhelminthes reported during a cruise of the RV Tyro to the Seychelles in 1992 and 1993. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Martens, E.E.; De Clerck, G. (1994). Interstitial and parasitic Platyhelminthes from the coast of the Seychelles, in: van der Land, E.J. (Ed.) (1994). Oceanic Reefs of the Seychelles: report on a cruise of the RV Tyro to the Seychelles in 1992 and 1993. pp. 1-10. more

Dataset contains a first part on locality records for freeliving Turbellaria and a number of undescribed species which were sampled twice on the coast of Kenya and the Seychelles and a second part giving an overview and description of parasitic Platyhelminthes present within marine fishes and echinoderms.
