| Abstract |
This 364-page Atlas, focused on Exotic Macrophytes in the Mediterranean, is the fruit of years of research by leading algal experts. Richly illustrated and backed up by abundant, up-to-date bibliographic references, it offers the latest knowledge on the current geographic distribution, mode of introduction, distinct taxonomic characteristics of 117 Exotic algal species, plus one seagrass, now established in Mediterranean waters. The reader will also find a presentation of 22 additional taxa that have made their way to the north-eastern coast of the Atlantic and are considered likely to be the next settlers. |
