New Zealand Seaweeds : An Illustrated Guide

A fully revised and completely redesigned edition of the first photographic identification guide to New Zealand's unique marine algae, by the country's pre-eminent seaweed expert Wendy Nelson.

Each species entry includes up-to date information on nomenclature, type locality, morphology, habitat, distribution and notes on identification and key characteristics.
