Abstract
    The Snellius-II oceanographic expedition took place between July 1984 and July 1985 in the E area of the Indonesian archipelago; 450 researchers took part (200 Indonesians, 248 Dutch and 2 Belgians). Collection of benthic macroalgae and higher plants were mainly carried out on the reef flats, their rock pools and slopes, lagoons, sea-grass meadows and mangals. A total of 1500 herbarium numbers has been collected. They contain at least 300 different species of macroalgae, at least identified to genus. Up to now, the Dasycladales and Bryopsidales have been studied in detail and dealt with in various publications; a publication on Gelidiales is in press. The present study gives a list of 73 collection stations and lists more than 300 taxa, including some new precise identifications, in particular for Caulerpaceae, Halimedaceae (Bryopsidales), Gelidiales and Corallinales.
