The largest on the island, Tsara Komba Lodge, consists of eight bungalows. The hotels are supplemented by around 13 guest houses which are privately rented out to tourists. Many of these facilities are designed to accommodate one-day stays for excursions from Nosy Be." can all be referenced to page 28 only of Jedrusik 2019.
Fixed. - G
- Szabó & Pócs 2016 is given as a page range. All but the penultimate reference (to Cololejeunea nosykombae) are on page 302. This is on pages 303 and 305, which provides information on the discovery of the two varieties. There is more detail on its habitat on page 304.
