Seaweeds can be found all along the Dutch coast. The *Field Guide to Seaweeds* ('Veldgids Zeewieren') helps you identify them. Many new species have been discovered in the Netherlands since the first edition was published.
This second edition has been completely revised. It includes over fifteen additional species and covers a total of more than 145 red, brown, and green algae that are easily recognizable with the naked eye or a hand lens.
Many species descriptions have been updated and are accompanied by nearly 630 photographs, many of which are new. Each entry details characteristics, distinctions from similar species, habitat, seasonal patterns, and distribution.
Thanks to the wealth of photographs, the guide is practical for use in the intertidal zone and on the beach. Additionally, the comprehensive introduction provides information on locations, ecology, non-native species, uses, and recipes.
Fully updated and revised: includes new species and photographs
Suitable for identification in the intertidal zone and on the beach
Unique: focuses on field use—no microscope required
