Native Fishes of Aotearoa

Part of the wildly popular Te Papa Te Taiao Nature Series, Native Fishes of Aotearoa is an accessible, handsomely illustrated guide to sixty of our most commonly encountered and interesting native coastal and freshwater fish species of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Written by Te Papa fishes expert Andrew Stewart, Native Fishes includes curator notes on each species and insights into the museum’s fieldwork and collections. Specialist illustrators working on specimens from Te Papa’s collections have provided detailed original drawings to accompany each entry.

A beautiful little hardback designed by award-winning designer Tim Denee, it’s an ideal keepsake or gift that can be used at home or out in the natural world.
