Faunistic factors in the regeneration of mangroves of Gazi Bay and Mida Creek (Kenya) Citable as data publication Verneirt M.; Koedam N.; Laboratorium voor Algemene Plantkunde en Natuurbeheer; Faculteit Wetenschappen. VUB: Belgium; (2016): Faunistic factors in the regeneration of mangroves of Gazi Bay and Mida Creek (Kenya). https://doi.org/10.14284/150 Contact: Availability:  This dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.Description In the first part of the dataset zonation of the mangrove vegetation is described, secondly, the predation of fauna (crab species) on the juveniles that were planted, and thirdly, explanations are searched using additional and preliminary experiment for the possible preferences of consumption of propagules. Experiments were conducted from July to September 1993 in Gazi Bay and Mida Creek. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Verneirt, M. (1994).
