Harpacticoid copepods in tropical seagrass beds of Gazi Bay (Kenya) and Mbweni (Zanzibar) sampled in July and August 1996 Citable as data publication Geerinckx T.; Vincx M.; Marine Biology Section, Zoology Institute. Ugent: Belgium; (2016): Harpacticoid copepods in tropical seagrass beds of Gazi Bay (Kenya) and Mbweni (Zanzibar) sampled in July and August 1996. https://doi.org/10.14284/108 Contact: Availability:  This dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.Description This dataset contains a list of harpacticoid copepods present in samples taken in Gazi Bay (Kenya) and Zanzibar (Tanzania) during July-August 1996. Samples were taken by snorkeling and a PVC meiofauna core. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Geerinckx, T. (2002).
