	Didymo
		A Biosecurity New Zealand survey of 384 has found new outbreaks of didymo in the Upukerora River, in the Te Anau area, the Gowan River, in the Buller catchment, the Twizel and Ohau Rivers, in the Waitaki catchment, and the Fraser River, in the Clutha catchment.
		Rivers are known to be infested include: Southland's Mararoa and Upukerora, upper and lower Waiau, Aparima and Oreti Rivers; Otago's Von, Hawea, upper Clutha and Fraser rivers; Canterbury's lower Waitaki, Ahuriri, Twizel and Ohau rivers; and the Buller and Gowan rivers in the Tasman District.

	Internation eel symposium (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Abstract Text: Populations of the endemic longfin eel Anguilla dieffenbachii have become male dominated in recent decades in rivers of the southern South Island of New Zealand.
		Recently in the Aparima River, there was a male:female ratio of about 68:1 among eels that were sexually differentiated.
		The change in sex ratio is attributable partly to selective harvest of females, but is likely due partly to changes in the structure of the population from fishing such that differentiation into males is favored.

		This medium-sized, easy flowing river caters for all types of fishing, especially fly, and is well stocked with brown trout.
		In the settled summer weather, the evening rise can be quite spectacular.
		The Aparima runs generally in a north to south direction, so a south to west breeze is most favourable to the dry fly angler, but interesting fishing can be had under the willows during the summer north-west gales, when fish are feeding on willow grubs.

		According to oral tradition Howell set up his station at Jacobs River (Aparima River) in 1834, although other sources suggest it may have been in 1836 or 1837, with his flagship Eliza and crews of nearly 60 Europeans and some 200 Maori.

		By his report, there is a bar off the entrance of the river, with a depth of ten feet water on it at low tide.
		Between these two points is a bay, with a considerable river, named Mataura, flowing into it, where, in 1835, a party of whalers established themselves, and shortly after their arrival killed eleven whales in seventeen days.
		The evidence, therefore, of the capability of this river as a port of access to the extensive open country through which it flows, except for small vessels, was to me doubful.

	The long and the short of it: looking after the needs of native eels - NIWA Science (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		A simulation we ran for a small braided river showed that the amount of daytime resting habitat rapidly rose as flows increased and peaked at about 1 cumec (cubic metre a second).
		We concluded that the amount of nocturnal feeding habitat in this river at low flows may be limiting the biomass of eels.
		We are also using River Environment Classification (REC) and GIS-based models to predict the abundance and biomass of eels in different waters and to assess the value of national parks as reserves for eels.

		Of all the animals theorized as the possible cause of the waitoreke, the track finds described point toward that of the otter or beaver.
		River otters typically show a slight webbing in their tracks of the hind feet, but seldom is highly visible.
		An adult otter normal has a foot spread of 3 1/4 - 4 inches in width and length, with a varying stride depending on the terrain and movement of 10 to 15 inches.
