Description
Summary:The seaweed diversity of the Mediterranean is still not completely known, especially in some areas of its African coasts. As an effort to complete a more detailed catalogue to fill such gap, an updated checklist of seaweeds from Algeria, based on updated literature records, is developed using as starting point the checklist of Perret-Boudouresque and Seridi published in 1989. In the present work, in which we include the Ulvophyceae Mattox & K.D.Stewart, we list 73 accepted taxa from this group, among which there are 8 new records for Algeria.
