Description
This collection comprises 378 herbarium specimens preserved dried and stored at CIBIO and 378 photos of these specimens stored digitally. These herbarium specimens were collected while surveying the occurrence and abundance of selected macroalgae species in North and central Portugal and Northwest Spain. Information on the macroalgae abundance and sampling events is available at https://www.gbif.org/dataset/c1e31227-6595-4797-b75a-d9d9f75e4cca
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 378 records.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Sampling Methods
Specimens in this dataset were collected in field work carried out between the autumns of 2020 and the summer of 2021. For the preparation of the herbarium, the algae were placed on drawing paper together with information on the species name, the location of collection, date, and the sample collectors. Specimens were covered by non-adherent paper and placed between journal paper to dry. All specimens were piled and a weight was added on top so that the pressure helped to flatten them and stick them to the paper. Photos of each specimen were taken to duplicate the information in digital support. These photos were taken with a Canon EOS 6D camera fitted with a 28-80 mm objective at a fixed distance (55 cm), without zoom and with a €1 coin to serve as scale.
| Study Extent | Data were collected between the autumn of 2020 and the summer of 2021. Sampling was carried out at 71 wave-exposed rocky shore locations along the Northwestern Iberian coast, covering the three major rocky stretches of shoreline in the Northern, Central Portuguese regions and in Galicia. |

Method step description:
- The steps that led to the final release of the dataset were as follows: (1) In-situ identification of species and attribution of a semi-quantitative abundance SACFOR score; (2) collection of one specimen per species per site when possible; (3) specimens were dried as described above; (4) photos of dried specimens were taken as described above.
