Golden Bay Non-Indigenous Species Port Survey. Baseline Surveys of New Ports and Marinas [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
New Zealand’s geographic isolation presents the opportunity to protect its unique biodiversity and economy. Knowledge of existing non-indigenous and indigenous biodiversity is required to identify new species threats, detect new species introductions, and undertake effective management of marine biosecurity (Hewitt et al. 2004). New Zealand has, therefore, implemented a number of baseline port surveys to elucidate the degree of non-indigenous and indigenous species diversity within its ports, marinas and also in regions relatively unaffected by human activities (Campbell et al. 2007). This document reports the results of a baseline survey of native and non-indigenous species undertaken at Golden Bay, New Zealand between 5 and 9 November 2007. The survey was performed by Golder Associates (NZ) Ltd and the Cawthron Institute in accordance with survey protocols and design prepared by the Centre for Research on Introduced Marine Pests and MAF Biosecurity New Zealand. Nine non-indigenous species and nineteen cryptogenic species were detected during the survey. The non-indigenous species comprised Barantolla lepte, Bugula flabellata, Bugula neritina, Crassostrea gigas, Cryptosula pallasiana, Limaria orientalis, Tricellaria catalinensis, Undaria pinnatifida and Watersipora subtorquata. All non-indigenous species had been recorded previously in New Zealand. Bugula flabellata, C. gigas, C. pallasiana, U. pinnatifida and W. subtorquata were collected from wharf pilings or pontoons, indicating an association with shipping and a biofouling habit, whereas B. flabellata and U. pinnatifida were also found on marine farms, indicating an association with aquaculture activities. The possible origin and potential vectors for the translocation of new species to Golden Bay are discussed in relation to the relative risk of new species introductions and the translocation of non-indigenous species that have established at Golden Bay. Options for the management of vector pathways and non-indigenous species to prevent new species incursions to Golden Bay and the spread of established species are also discussed.
