A Photographic Guide to Freshwater Fishes of New Zealand

A Photographic Guide to Freshwater Fishes of New Zealand is a comprehensive reference on all freshwater fishes, both introduced and native fishes, with useful identification charts at the back of the book for bullies and whitebait (diadromous galaxids).  Rod Morris has gone to great lengths to capture the very best images and numerous colour photographs will assist in identifying the male and female of the species, and the subtle differences between related fishes. Mini-maps provided for each entry give an indication of the distribution of each species throughout the country.

An extensive introduction includes highly topical coverage of freshwater ecology and conservation issues surrounding the quality of New Zealand’s waterways, making this book an invaluable information resource.
