The Reed Guide New Zealand Freshwater Fishes

Plot

New Zealand has a rich and varied assortment of rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands that are home to a modest but really fascinating and varied freshwater fish fauna. For many years this fauna was known to only a small group of specialists and devotees but, over the past few decades, an increasing number of naturalists, conservationists and anglers have begun to discover the attractions and fascination of these fishes. The Reed Field Guide to New Zealand Freshwater Fishes is a complete and easy-to-read reference to the fishes throughout New Zealand and her outlying islands, such as the Chathams. Each entry contains colour photographs, a line drawing and a distribution map and information on size, colour, features particular to the type of fish, distribution, habitat and diet.
