| Sumario: | Environmental degradation and over-fishing have taken the limpet Patella candei candei D´Orbigny, 1840 to the brink of extinction in the Canaries archipelago, where only a few populations persist on the island of Fuerteventura. Efforts to conserve this endemic Macaronesic species are centred on characterising the habitats of these different populations. Seaweed is an important resource in the feeding of this species, and therefore the study of marine flora and vegetation is necessary. In the present paper, 10 taxa are recorded for the first time on Fuerteventura; indeed, our citation of Nodularia harveyana Thuret ex Bornet et Flahault is the first for the entire Canary Islands. |
