These species and their associated locality records were critically assessed by BoPRC Senior Environmental Scientist Shay Dean and DOC Flora Technical Advisor Paul Cashmore for their likelihood of presence/persistence in these habitats. The analysis excluded 20 species from Ahikā Consulting’s 2021 report based on being non-freshwater, unlikely to persist in the region, or not occurring in the region. More recently (2023/2024), a further five species have been excluded due to downgraded conservation threat status. All sites with reliable records of freshwater dependent flora species were included.Ahikā Consulting Report 2021The 2021 Ahikā Consulting Report compiled a metadataset based on observation records, excluding fish and invertebrate species. This dataset was derived from 23 sources, including Auckland Museum collections, BOPRC EPT, BOPRC Key Biodiversity Flora Sites, BoPRC Marsh Bird, CHR Allan Herbarium, DoC databases, eBird, iNaturalist, MBIS Marine Fauna and Flora observations around New Zealand, MPI Protected species bycatch in New Zealand fisheries, National Vegetation Survey, NERMN, NIWA Invertebrate Type Collection, NIWA Freshwater Fish Database, and NZ Arthropod Collection. Permission for data usage was granted through Creative Commons or obtained from hosting organisations. While the dataset cannot be shared directly, it serves as a foundation for identifying water bodies that support threatened or rare freshwater-dependent species.For more information on this processes see: <A href="https://atlas.boprc.govt.nz/api/v1/edms/document/A4182073/content" target="_blank" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;">Mapping threatened and rare freshwater-dependednt flora and fauna within the Bay of Plenty Region - December 2021 - Ahika Consulting</A></DIV></DIV></DIV> Bay of Plenty Regional Council Department of Conservation Ahikā Consulting Limited critical habitat threatened plant species threatened species habitat freshwater habitat aquatic ecosystem instream habitat waterfowl roost riparian zone wetland stream ecology blue duck whio bittern matuku dabchick weweia grey duck pārera lamprey piharau shortjaw kokopu spawning grounds freshwater biodiversity water quality hydrology bed disturbance instream works vegetation clearance Bay of Plenty 1 175.898971 178.188782 -37.222074 -38.981921 <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV>The regional council does not guarantee the accuracy of the provided distribution data and is not liable for any errors or omissions.

The attributes are a selected set from the three contributing wetland survey datasets plus some other that have been included for used by the Freshwater Wetlands Database. These attributes are not especially easy to understand. Please see the Geospatial staff for clarification if required. Dataset is an amalgam of the Bay of Plenty, region wide survey, The Rotorua Lakes Ecological District survey and the Rotorua Lake Margins survey. New attribute columns have been added and others dropped due to the requirements of the Freshwater Wetlands Database
