This dataset covers the time span of 29/8/1933 to 18/11/1933 and contains occurrence data of Amphipoda in the coasts of Alexandria, Egypt. It also contains informations about individual counts, sex,lifestage and body length. The digitization of this dataset was done by LifewatchGreece team.

Notes and Memories No 8.http://ipt.medobis.eu/resource?r=egyptexpeditionpreliminaryrepor Body length measurements will be uploaded soon This dataset is based on a faunistic report compiled from the expedition by the Fisheries Research Directorate in fishery grounds near Alexandria at 1933. This dataset is only a part from a large faunistical expedition (http://ipt.medobis.eu/resource?r=egyptexpeditionpreliminaryrepor) that took place in the coasts near Alexandria. The samples were collected by A. Steuer. For bottom samples almost exclusively a dredge with 20x70 cm opening was used. A single catch was made in a depth of 20 m with a large otter trawl in the eastern part of the Bay of Abukir. In general, the motor-launch of the Marine Laboratory "El Hoot" was used for dredging and a rowing boat in shallow water. All excursions were one-day trips. After the expedition, taxonomic identification of the samples was done by specialists. The results of this expedition were published in separate for each taxonomic group volumes. Thus, sampling methods were described in a preliminary report by A. Steuer. Amphipoda species identification and description were made by Schellenberg A.
