Abiotic parameters and densities of meiofauna taxa at several depths in the cages, partial cages and blanco's of an Avicennia marina and Ceriops tagal mangrove at Gazi Bay sampled between 06 August and 27 September 1992. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Schallier, R. (1993). Structurele en trofische relaties tussen meiobenthos en epifauna in Avicennia mangroves (Gazi Bay, Kenia)= Structural and trophic relationships between meiobenthos and epifauna in Avicennia mangroves (Gazi Bay, Kenya).
