Abstract
A marine algae survey in Bajo Pepito, Isla Mujeres, Quintana Roo, Mexico fr om February 1997 to January 1998, produced six new algal records for the Me xican Atlantic, 11 for the Yucatan Peninsula, 14 for Quintana Roo State and 32 for Isla Mujeres, The relativelly high number of new records may be cau sed by methodology because nearly all the previous records were from intert idal zones, whereas this study was carried out in a subtidal zone.
