Abstract

Abstract This paper reports 242 taxa at species and infraspecies level of the benthic marine algae (75 Phaeophyceae, 129 Rhodophyta, and 38 Chlorophyta) from Northern Cyprus. Among them, 107 taxa are recorded for the first time from the coast of Northern Cyprus. Sampling was made at seven different localities (Yeşilırmak, Koruçam, Girne, Dip Karpaz, Kumyalı, Salamis, and Gazi Mağusa) in North Cyprus in 2005˗2008.
