SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION
Emphasis upon publication as a means of ‘‘diffusing knowledge’’ was expressed
by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph
Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: ‘‘It is proposed to
publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and
of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.’’ This theme
of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued
in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian
Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series:
Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology
Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics
Smithsonian Contributions to Botany
Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences
Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences
Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology
Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology
Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space
Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology
In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs
that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of
professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are
distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout
the world.
Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the
Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only
through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the
manuscripts are given substantive review. Press requirements for manuscript and art
preparation are outlined on the inside back cover.

ABSTRACT
Menez, Ernani G., and Arthur C. Mathieson. The Marine Algae of Tunisia.
Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences, number 10, 59 pages, | figure,
1981.—A taxonomic study of the marine flora of Tunisia, North Africa, was
conducted during 1973-1975. A total of 169 species, 37 Chlorophyta, 36
Phaeophyta, 96 Rhodophyta, of benthic marine algae were collected from 29
sites along the Mediterranean coast of Tunisia. Of the 169 species, 57 taxa are
newly reported for the country. Of these, 16 represent genera previously
unreported.
OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DATE is handstamped in a limited number of initial copies and is recorded
in the Institution’s annual report, Smzthsonian Year. SERIES COVER DESIGN: Seascape along the
Atlantic coast of eastern North America.

The Marine Algae of ‘Tunisia
Ernanit G. Menez
and Arthur C. Mathieson
Introduction
The North African country of Tunisia lies on
the southwestern shore of the Mediterranean be-
tween Algeria and Libya (Figure 1). The coun-
try’s extensive coastline (approximately 1500 km)
borders the eastern and western basins of the
Mediterranean. Very few detailed floristic studies
of the Tunisian marine flora have been con-
ducted.
The first records of Tunisian marine algae (42
species) were published by Piccone (1884, 1879)
from Galite and Cani Islands in northern Tunisia.
Patouillard (1897) published a catalog of plants
in which Sauvageau reported 6 species of sea-
weeds from the Gulf of Gabes in southeastern
Tunisia. In the same year Debray (1897) reported
30 species from Tunisia. Peterson (1918) listed 19
species collected by Paulsen and Ostenfeld from
Galite Island during the winter of 1908-1909 and
summer of 1910 cruises of the Thors Danish
oceanographic expeditions to the Mediterranean
and adjacent seas. Schiffner (1926) published the
first marine flora of Tunisia, listing 60 species of
algae from Tunis, the capital of the country, and
Sfax, a coastal city in the east. Hamel (1926,
1927, 193la,b) listed 55 species of algae from
Tunisia. Feldmann published two short papers
(193la, 1951) on Tunisian algae citing a few
Emam G. Meriez, Smithsonian Oceanographic Sorting Center, Smith-
sonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560. Arthur C. Mathieson,

specimens from Gabes and Sousse. Subsequently
Feldmann (1961) gave a comprehensive report of
90 species from Galite Island in northern Tunisia.
Hamel and Lemoine (1953), in their publication
of the Corallinaceae of France and North Africa,
listed 15 species of coralline algae from Tunisia.
Earlier Lemoine (1924) reported 3 species of cal-
careous algae from Tunisia during the Mediter-
ranean cruise of the Pourquois Pas?. A list of 56
species of seaweeds from the Gulf of Tunis was
published by Ben Alaya (1970). Other investiga-
tors, such as Fremy (1925), Pottier (1929), Huve
(1962), Boudouresque (1967), Mazoyer (1937,
1938), Seurat (1929), Mollinier and Picard
(1954), have also contributed to our knowledge
of the benthic marine algae in Tunisia.
General collections of seaweeds were made at
different times of the year at 29 sites throughout
the Tunisian coast (Figure 1) between 1973-1975.
Voucher specimens of all the species collected at
each site were prepared. Whenever possible, 5 or
more replicates of each species were made. Hab-
itat descriptions of the 29 collecting sites (Figure
1) are summarized in “Collecting Locations on
the Tunisian Coast.” Overall, the sites represent
exposed, semi-exposed, and sheltered locations,
and the algae were either growing on rocks or
sand-mud substrate or epiphytically on seagrasses
or other algae. The specimens were collected
principally by free diving to 3 m deep or dredging
to a depth of 40 m.
A total of 169 taxa of seaweeds was collected

from the 29 sites in Tunisia, including 37 (22%)
Chlorophyta, 36 (21%) Phaeophyta, and 96 (57%)
Rhodophyta. Of the 169 species, 57 are newly
reported from Tunisia, 1.e., 14 Chlorophyta, 8
Phaeophyta and 35 Rhodophyta. Of these, 16
represent genera previously unreported. The gen-
era are: Spatoglossum, Punctaria, Blidingia, Derbesia,
Pseudobryopsis, Scnaia, Myriogramme, Bonnemaisonia,
Falkenbergia, Cryptonemia, Halarachnion, Hypoglos-
sum, Rhodymena, Pterosiphonia, Spyridia, Digenia.
The taxa new to Tunisia are designated with an
asterisk (*) in the systematic section. Basionyms
and synonyms are included in the list. References
pertinent to Tunisian marine flora, general col-
lection data, and the distribution of seaweed taxa
in the Mediterranean, northeastern Atlantic, Red
Sea, and Indian Ocean are included in the list.
Collector is designated as EGM for E. G. Menez.
The numbers in italic cited after the collector
correspond to collecting stations, followed by
specimen numbers in roman. Specimens are being

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.— This study represents a
portion of a dissertation submitted by E. Menez
to the University of New Hampshire in partial
fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of
doctor of philosophy. The financial support pro-
vided by the Smithsonian Foreign Currency Pro-
gram for the research in Tunisia was greatly
appreciated. We wish to thank Dr. S. Dillon
Ripley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution,
for granting travel support from the Fluid Re-
search Fund to enable E. G. Menez to study
specimens of Tunisian seaweeds deposited in the
British Museum (Natural History), London, and
in the Laboratoire de Cryptogamie, Museum Na-
tional d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris. We would like
to acknowledge the assistance of Dr. Abderrazak
Azouz, director, Institut National Scientifique,
Technical d’Oceanographie et des Péches (Tuni-
sia), for granting permission to collect and study
seaweeds from Tunisia. For critical review and
discussion of this paper, we are indebted to Dr.
Linn Bogle and Dr. Garrett Crow, Department
of Botany, University of New Hampshire; Dr.
James Norris, National Museum of National His-
tory, Smithsonian Institution; and Dr. John West,
Department of Botany, University of California,
Berkeley. Dr. Paul Silva, University of California
Herbarium, Berkeley, assisted with problems of
literature citations, for which we are grateful. For
their encouragement and continued support, the
senior author wishes to thank Dr. Robert Higgins
and Dr. Raymond Manning, Smithsonian Insti-
tution. Last, but not least, we would like to
acknowledge the assistance of Ms. Hilconida Cal-
umpong, Smithsonian fellow (Educational Out-
reach Program), in the final proofreading and
typing of this paper.
Collecting Locations on the Tunisian Coast
The Tunisian coastline is approximately 1500
km long. The northern boundary (08°45’00” N
lat., 36°57'00” E long.) is 5 km west of the city of
Tabarka and the southern boundary (11°34’00”
N lat., 33°10’ 00” E long.) is 6 km south of Lake
E] Bibane. A brief description of each collecting
station (Figure 1) is given below.
Station 1, Tabarka: a sheltered rocky beach at the western
edge of the port. The substrate consists of large subtidal
rock outcrops. A rich algal flora is evident.
Station 2, Cap Serrat: a semi-exposed sandy beach 56 km
west of Bizerte. A rocky promontory with large tidepools
provides an excellent substrate for a well-developed flora.
Heavy populations of Postdonia with numerous algal epi-
phytes.
Station 3, Bechateur: an isolated, semi-exposed rocky site
with a sandy beach 3 km west of the town. Rocky outcrops
and Posidonia beds abound with algae.
Station 4, Corniche, Bizerte: an exposed sandy beach located
behind Hotel Corniche 4 km west of the town. Collection
consisted of drift specimens of algae.
Station 5, Cap Zebib: an exposed sandy beach 12 km west
of Bizerte. Vertical surfaces of rock benches, subtidal rock
platforms, and sparse population of seagrass provide an
excellent substrate for a rich algal flora.
Station 6, Raf Raf: an exposed sandy beach 15 km west of
Cap Zebib. The substrate consists of a few, small rock
outcrops and sand. Algae were sparse.
+ SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MARINE SCIENCES
Station 7, Ras Sidi Ali El Mekki: an exposed sandy beach at
the northwest end of Gulf of Tunis. Few, scattered rocks
with poor algal cover.
Station 8, Ile Plane: an exposed offshore station 8 km west
of Ras Sidi Ali El] Mekki. The substrate consists of rocks
mixed with sand and calcareous algae fragments. Algae
were dredged from depths of 15-75 m.
Station 9, mouth of Madjerda: a semi-exposed site near a
river outlet 8 km south of Ras Sidi Ali El Mekki. The
substrate consists of muddy sand. Algae were dredged
from depths of 15-57 m.
Station 10, Raouad: an exposed sandy beach 13 km south of
Madjerda on the western side of the Gulf of Tunis. The
substrate consists of sand with few, isolated rocks. Algae
collection consisted of drift specimens.
Station 11, Gammarth: a semi-exposed sandy beach behind
Abou Nawas Hotel 9 km south of Raouad. Rock outcrops
and Cymodocea beds abound with well-developed marine
flora.
Station 12, Corniche, La Marsa: a sheltered sandy beach 7
km north of Gammarth in the Bay of Tunis. A rocky
promontory and extensive Cymodocea beds provide a good
substrate for a rich algal flora.
Station 13, Sidi Bou Said: a sheltered marina enclosed by
man-made rock piles 3 km south of Corniche, La Marsa.
Sparse Cymodocea covered with algal epiphytes.
Station 14, Korbous: a semi-exposed rocky beach 6 km south
of the town on the Cap Bon peninsula. Few algae were
found on intertidal rocks and Cymodocea.
Station 15, Nabeul: an exposed rocky beach behind Hotel
Pyramides on the Cap Bon peninsula. Intertidal rock
platforms with few algae.
Station 16, Hammamet: a semi-exposed sandy beach behind
an old fortification on the Cap Bon peninsula. Isolated
boulders provide a good substrate for rich populations of
Codium and Porphyra.
Station 17, Sousse: a semi-exposed sandy beach adjacent to
the main boulevard. Massive rock piles 50 m offshore
support a rich algal flora.
Station 18, Monastir: an exposed rocky beach 14 km south-
west of Sousse. The substrate consists of sand and rocks.
Vegetation is poor.
Station 19, Sidi Fredj, Kerkenna Island: a semi-exposed
sandy-muddy beach on the western end of the island.
Occasional rocks and Cymodocea beds provide substrate for
the algae.
Station 20, E] Attaya, Kerkenna Island: an exposed sandy-
muddy beach on the southern end of the island. Intertidal
rock platforms and Cymodocea beds abound with lush algal
vegetation.
Station 21, Sidi Youssef, Kerkenna Island: a sheltered sandy-
muddy beach adjacent to the ferry-landing. Sand, mud,
and occasional rocks support a poor vegetation.
Station 22, Gulf of Gabes: an offshore station 72 km south
of the city of Sfax. Algae were dredged from depths of 37-
38 m.
Station 23, Bord Djillidj, Djerba Island: an exposed sandy
beach on the northwestern end of the island. Coarse sand
supports few algae.
Station 24, Dar Djerba, Djerba Island: an exposed sandy
beach behind Hotel Dar Djerba. Rock outcrops with poor
cover of algae.
Station 25, Sakiet, Djerba Island: an exposed sandy beach
3 km south of Dar Djerba. Seagrass, rocks, and sand
provide substrate for algae.
Station 26, El Kantara, Djerba Island: a sheltered sandy
beach on the southern end of the island. Intertidal rock
platforms and Cymodocea beds provide a good substrate for
marine vegetation.
Station 27, Aghir, Djerba Island: a semi-exposed sandy
beach 5 km north of E] Kantara. Cymodocea with numerous
algal epiphytes. Occasional rocks support sparse popula-
tions of larger algae.
Station 28, Zarzis: an exposed sandy beach adjacent to a
small bridge 18 km south of El Kantara. The substrate
consists of rocks and sand. Vegetation is poor.
Station 29, El Bibane: a sheltered salt-water lake 8 km north
of the Libyan border. The substrate inside the lake consists
of mud and sand, which support thick populations of
Cystoseira, Udotea, and Halimeda. Subtidal rock platforms at
the narrow opening into the lake with rich algal cover.

REQUIREMENTS FOR SMITHSONIAN SERIES PUBLICATION
Manuscripts intended for series publication receive substantive review within their
originating Smithsonian museums or offices and are submitted to the Smithsonian Institution
Press with approval of the appropriate museum authority on Form SI—36. Requests for
special treatment—use of color, foldouts, casebound covers, etc.—require, on the same
form, the added approval of designated committees or museum directors.
Review of manuscripts and art by the Press for requirements of series format and style,
completeness and clarity of copy, and arrangement of all material, as outlined below, will
govern, within the judgment of the Press, acceptance or rejection of the manuscripts and art.
Copy must be typewritten, double-spaced, on one side of standard white bond paper,
with 114” margins, submitted as ribbon copy (not carbon or xerox), in loose sheets (not
stapled or bound), and accompanied by original art. Minimum acceptable length is 30 pages.
Front matter (preceding the text) should include: title page with only title and author
and no other information, abstract page with author/title/series/etc., following the establish-
ed format, table of contents with indents reflecting the heads and structure of the paper.
First page of text should carry the title and author at the top of the page andan unnum-
bered footnote at the bottom consisting of author’s name and professional mailing address.
Center heads of whatever level should be typed with initial caps of major words, with
extra space above and Selow the head, but with no other preparation (such as all caps or
underline). Run-in paragraph heads should use period/dashes or colons as necessary.
Tabulations within text (lists of data, often in parallel columns) can be typed on the text
page where they occur, but they should not contain rules or formal, numbered table heads.
Formal tables (numbered, with table heads, boxheads, stubs, rules) should be sub-
mitted as camera copy, but the author must contact the series section of the Press for edito-
rial attention and preparation assistance before final typing of this matter.
Taxonomic keys in natural history papers should use the alined-couplet form in the
zoology and paleobiology series and the multi-level indent form in the botany series. If
cross-referencing is required between key and text, do not include page references within the
key, but number the keyed-out taxa with their corresponding heads in the text.
Synonymy in the zoology and paieobiology series must use the short form (taxon,
author, year:page), with a full reference at the end of the paper under ‘‘Literature Cited.”’
For the botany series, the long form (taxon, author, abbreviated journal or book title, volume,
Page, year, with no reference in the “‘Literature Cited’’) is optional.
Footnotes, when few in number, whether annotative or bibliographic, should be typed
at the bottom of the text page on which the reference occurs. Extensive notes must appear at
the end of the text in a netes section. If bibliographic footnotes are required, use the short
form (author/brief title/page) with the full reference in the bibliography.
Text-reference system (author/year/page within the text, with the full reference in a
“Literature Cited’”’ at the end of the text) must be used in place of bibliographic footnotes in
all scientific series and is strongly recommended in the history and technology series:
“(Jones, 1910:122)” or “... . Jones (1910:122).”
Bibliography, depending upon use, is termed ‘‘References,’’ ‘‘Selected References,” or
“Literature Cited.’’ Spell out book, journal, and article titles, using initial caps in all major
words. For capitalization of titles in foreign languages, follow the national practice of each
language. Underline (for italics) book and journal titles. Use the colon-parentheses system
for volume/number/page citations: ‘‘10(2):5-9."’ For alinement and arrangement of
elements, follow the format of the series for which the manuscript is intended.
Legends for illustrations must not be attached to the art nor included within the text but
must be submitted at the end of the manuscript—with as many legends typed, double-
spaced, to a page as convenient.
Illustrations must not be included within the manuscript but must be submitted sepa-
rately as original art (not copies). All illustrations (photographs, line drawings, maps, etc.)
can be intermixed throughout the printed text. They should be termed Figures and should
be numbered consecutively. If several ‘‘figures’’ are treated as components of a single larger
figure, they should be designated by lowercase italic letters (underlined in copy) on the illus-
tration, in the legend, and in text references: ‘‘Figure 9b.’’ If illustrations are intended to be
printed separately on coated stock following the text, they should be termed Plates and any
components should be lettered as in figures: ‘‘Plate 9b.’’ Keys to any symbols within an
illustration should appear on the art and not in the legend.
A few points of style: (1) Do not use periods after such abbreviations as ‘‘mm, ft,
yds, USNM, NNE, AM, BC.’’ (2) Use hyphens in spelled-out fractions: ‘‘two-thirds.’’ (3)
Spell out numbers ‘‘one’’ through “‘nine’’ in expository text, but use numerals in all other
cases if possible. (4) Use the metric system of measurement, where possible, instead of
the English system. (5) Use the decimal system, where possible, in place of fractions.
(6) Use day/month/year sequence for dates: ‘‘9 April 1976.’ (7) For months in tabular list-
ings or data sections, use three-letter abbreviations with no periods: ‘‘Jan, Mar, Jun,”’ etc.
Arrange and paginate sequentially EVERY sheet of manuscript—including ALL front
matter and ALL legends, etc., at the back of the text—in the following order: (1) title page,
(2) abstract, (3) table of contents, (4) foreword and/or preface, (5) text, (6) appendixes,
(7) notes, (8) glossary, (9) bibliography, (10) index, (11) legends.
