Length, width and weight of Echinotrix diadema and E. Calamaris species sampled in Mombasa Marine National Park (Kenya) from December 1994 to March 1995

This dataset contains length, width and weight measurements of <i>Echinotrix diadema</i> and <i>E. Calamaris</i> sampled in Mombasa Marine National Park (Kenya) from December 1994 to March 1995. Animals were collected collected at low tide in the reef lagoon and in the channel on the Northern side of Mombasa island, in front of the Kenya Marine Fishery and Research Institute (K.M.F.R.I.). Collection was done while snorkeling, no SCUBA was used. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Samyn, Y. (1995). Reproduction of two non-commercial sea urchins (Echinodermata: Echinoidea) in the Mombasa Marine National Park, Kenya. MSc Thesis. Vrije Universiteit Brussel: Brussel. 134 pp.

本数据集收录了1994年12月至1995年3月期间，于肯尼亚蒙巴萨海洋国家公园（Mombasa Marine National Park）采集的带棘冠海胆（Echinotrix diadema）与柔冠海胆（Echinotrix calamaris）的体长、体宽及体重测量数据。采样于低潮时开展，采集区域位于蒙巴萨岛北侧、肯尼亚海洋渔业与研究所（K.M.F.R.I.）前方的礁湖与水道内，采集过程采用浮潜方式，未使用水肺潜水装备。本数据集的数据由佛兰德斯海洋研究所（VLIZ）从原始研究报告中数字化整理而来，该报告为Samyn, Y.（1995）的硕士学位论文《肯尼亚蒙巴萨海洋国家公园两种非商业性海胆（棘皮动物门：海胆纲）的繁殖生物学研究》，由布鲁塞尔自由大学（Vrije Universiteit Brussel）于布鲁塞尔出版，共134页。
