Description

This dataset presents the distribution of aquatic hyphomycetes in Madeira island streams.

Sampling Description

Study Extent

Epilithic freshwater diatoms (Bacillariophyta Karsten 1928) from 40 sites (MAD01 – MAD40) from 27 permanent streams in Madeira island.

Sampling

Freshwater diatoms were samples and prepared following the European and National recommendations.

Method steps

The data has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardised format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 965 occurrences with 130 records.
