Abstract:

Abundance survey data on Tridacna spp. (Tridacna maxima and Tridacna squamosa) giant clams in the eastern Saudi Arabian Red Sea. Surveys cover a latitudinal gradient from 29-18 Degree, 7 different depths (0.5, 1.5, 3, 5, 8, 11, and 15m), windward and/or leeward sides of reefs, and different distances to the shore.

Keyword(s):

Abundance; giant clam; Red Sea; Tridacna
