Even though 'tropical seaweeds' is a very broad field, as it would be 'temperate seaweeds', I still would like to have the most useful guides at hand just to see not only if I ever get them right but it is important to systematize the guides for farming/harvesting from the wild to use them, separating this field from the more phycological one that needs to identify every seaweed.
M. Littler and D. Littler wrote wonderful and useful guides for seaweeds in Florida/the Caribbean. I. Abbott wrote books/guides for the Pacific/Hawaii.
Dear Ricardo,
Please refer 'Sri Lankan Seaweeds: Methodologies and field guide to the dominant species' by Coppejans et al. This can be also downloaded at http://www.abctaxa.be/downloads/volume-6-algae-sri-lanka
Dear Dr.Ricardo
Seaweeds by Wolfram Braune and Michael D. Guiry could be one of the comprehensive guides for seaweeds.
Best regards
One reference book that you could try is the Field Guide& Atlas of the Seaweed Resources Of the Philippines by Gavino C. Trono Jr. published by Bookmark Inc. Please check with the publisher and /or the author.
Thanks a lot to all. Great sources.
The best end/beginning of year to all!
Ricardo
