Note on Littoral Algae from Mombasa, Kenya..
1979
Knutzen, Jon | Jaasund, Erik
Published records of benthic algae from the Kenya coast are rather scarce (Gerloff 1960; Taylor 1966, Isaac 1967, 1968 and 1971; Moorjani 1969, 1970). From the Mombasa area there are a few reports (Taylor 1966, Isaac 1971). A field guide to the intertidal seaweed communities of East Africa has recently been published (Jaasund 1976), the nomenclature of which is used here. (See also Jaasund 1977 a, b, c.). Observations were made September-October 1974 and 1975 as part of a water pollution and waste disposal study for the municipality of Mombasa, conducted by Norconsult A/S for the Kenya Ministry of Local Government. The intention was to find out if there were any symptoms of pollution and to obtain a preliminary documentation of the algal flora with regard to possible effects from future sewage outfalls.
