As a result of a comprehensive survey by a team of specialists, the island is now one of the most intensively worked sites in Ireland and Britain, and it has an amazingly rich algal flora, encompassing well over 700 species.

This latest volume from the Royal Irish Academy reports on their work, providing the most comprehensive description of Irish freshwater and terrestrial algae published in modern times. The volume’s beautiful illustrations and images will intrigue amateur natural historians as well as providing an importance reference work for academics and professionals involved in water quality.
