Species composition of whitebait (Galaxiidae) fisheries in 12 Bay of Plenty rivers, New Zealand: Evidence for river mouth selection by juvenile Galaxias brevipinnis (Günther)

Galaxias maculatus dominated the whitebait catch in 11 of the 12 Bay of Plenty rivers studied. In four rivers, this species accounted for 84-99% of the catch. However, in seven other rivers, G. maculatus accounted for only 52-70% of the catch, and major (>18%) contributions were made by either Ga...

description Galaxias maculatus dominated the whitebait catch in 11 of the 12 Bay of Plenty rivers studied. In four rivers, this species accounted for 84-99% of the catch. However, in seven other rivers, G. maculatus accounted for only 52-70% of the catch, and major (>18%) contributions were made by either Galaxias brevipinnis or Galaxias fasciatus. hi the twelfth river, the Motu River, G. brevipinnis dominated the catch, accounting for over 70% of whitebait caught. This is the first report of a river-mouth whitebait fishery dominated by G. brevipinnis. Rivers where G. brevipinnis contributed more than 18% of the catch were all within a 70 km radius west of the Motu River mouth. In rivers beyond this limit, G. brevipinnis was less than 2% of the catch. Such differences in species composition may result from river-mouth selection by migratory juveniles of G. brevipinnis.
