Northland contains 18 mainland Ecological Districts, each characterised by its own landscape type and ecological makeup. The most distinctive feature of the Hokianga Ecological District is the Hokianga Harbour, New Zealand’s fourth largest harbour. Originally a large drowned valley, the harbour is long and narrow, surrounded by dense mangrove forest containing some of the largest saltmarsh areas left in Northland.

    4. Site descriptions Midpoint grid references are given for contiguous sites. Individual grid references are given for sites containing more than one remnant. Vegetation types within ecological units describe abundant/dominant and common canopy species. If there is more than one canopy species, and the species are all common within the canopy, they are listed alphabetically. Where available, the percentage cover of ecological units has been included in the site descriptions. Records of threatened flora and fauna have been sourced from herbaria and other databases and information systems mentioned in Section 2.1, or were direct observations by Department of Conservation staff during the course of this survey. The status of all records was checked prior to inclusion in this report. The Fauna section of each site report is focused on significant fauna only. See Appendix 8.4 for fauna lists in the Hokianga Ecological District. “Not surveyed” is written in the Fauna section of the site descriptions if, at the time of publication, the Department of Conservation, Northland Conservancy did not have any information on significant fauna species. 4.1 LEVEL 1 SITES SITE NAME SURVEY NO.

  • Identifying Freshwater Ecosystems of National Importance for Biodiversity
    76 This topographically diverse unit encompasses the Marlborough Sounds, the Richmond Ranges, and the major catchments of central and southern Marlborough, i.e. the Waiau, Awatere and Clarence Rivers. Also included are several islands in the Marlborough Sounds, the larger of which, i.e. Arapawa and Rangitoto Ke Te Tonga (D’Urville) Islands, have significant freshwater streams. Studies of genetic similarities in Galaxias vulgaris (Waters & Wallis 2001b) indicate that populations of this species in the Clarence River are more closely related to those in the Wairau headwaters than to Chadderton et al. —Creating a candidate list of Rivers of National Importance populations further south in Canterbury, with the low passes between the Clarence and Wairau River headwaters to the north presumably increasing the chances of headwater stream capture events that would facilitate interchange between these populations. However, low passes also occur between the Clarence and Waiau River to the south (Leathwick et al. 2003). Fish specimens referred to as Gobiomorphus alpinus have been collected from tarns or small lakes in the headwaters of the Clarence and Wairau Rivers, but the status of this species is still subject to debate (Smith et al. 2003). Marlborough also represents the southern limit of Paranephrops planifrons on the east coast of the South Island (Leathwick et al. 2003). Populations of Gobiomorphus breviceps from the Branch River are genetically differentiated from populations in the Motueka-Nelson and Grey- Buller Units (P. Smith pers. comm.). The Lower Wairau is notable for significant numbers of wading birds including at least one-third of the national population of black-fronted tern, as well as a major population of black-billed gulls.

O05/124 Survey date 23 June 1994 Grid reference O05 570 587 Area 1 ha Altitude < 2 m asl Ecological unit (a) Coprosma propinqua swamp shrubland on estuary/alluvium (90%) 136 . (b) Raupo–harakeke association on estuary/alluvium (10%) Landform/geology Alluvium and estuarine deposits. Vegetation A very small upper saltmarsh/freshwater wetland ecotone which should be considered as part of the greater Hokianga estuarine habitat. It has been identified here mainly in order to signal the scarcity of this plant association and wildlife habitat type. (a) Coprosma propinqua is common to abundant with frequent manuka and occasional ti kouka, kohuhu, kahikatea, mapou, harakeke, koromiko, totara, kowhai and raupo. (b) Raupo is abundant in a small area with harakeke common. Gahnia sp. is occasional. Pest plants include honeysuckle and pampas. Fauna NI fernbird (Sparse). Significance Of the c. 2400 ha (1978 figure) of reclamation which has occurred within the harbour, a large percentage would have been of this upper saltmarsh brackish wetland type where alluvium and a thick layer of organic soil has formed on top of estuarine deposits. These are the very areas which are critical as spawning sites for native galaxids (inanga, whitebait) and as nesting and feeding sites for wetland birds such as grey duck, Australasian bittern, crakes, rails and NI fernbird. Representative site for both ecological units with type (b) unrecorded elsewhere in the Ecological District. UMAWERA BUSH Survey no. O05/125 Survey date 14 June 1994 Grid reference O05 607 575 Area 117 ha (94 ha forest, 23 ha shrubland) Altitude 30–140 m asl Ecological unit (a) Kanuka–totara forest on hillslope (95%) (b) Bracken–mahoe shrubland on hillslope (5%) Landform/geology This site is on dissected hill country underlain by Mangakahia Complex sandstone and mudstone.
