Inventories of the benthic fauna on Swedish West coast

Data have been compiled from both historical and more recent inventories of the benthic fauna on the Swedish west coast. This catalogue post contains data from four different inventories:
- The Jägerskiöld expedition, conducted between the year 1921 and 1938, is the oldest inventory and was generated by L.A. Jägerskiöld. A total of 440 localities were visited, usually between spring and autumn.
- The Pandalina survey on the Swedish west coast, 2005-2010.
- Morups Bank's inventory, 2005.
- Lilla Middelgrund och Fladen's inventory, 2005.
