The macroalgae of the archipelago were first studied in the nineteenth century (Dickie 1874; Hemsley 1885; Murray 1891), and since then, occasional surveys have increased the knowledge of the diversity of the local species of benthic seaweed. Currently, the marine flora of Fernando de Noronha includes 135 taxa, represented by 56 species of Chlorophyta, 51 Rhodophyta and 28 Ochrophyta (Oliveira and Ugadim 1974; Eston et al. 1986; Szèchy et al. 1989; Pedrini et al. 1992).
