Bursatella leachii in New Zealand

October 22, 2001
From: John Buckeridge

Dear Bill
Just a quick note: One of my PhD students was involved in the "draining" of the Orakei Basin, a largish boat harbour in Auckland [New Zealand]. (This was part of a sediment build-up monitoring programme). In the middle (previously the deepest part) of the harbour was a very large, and apparently thriving population of Bursatella leachii. This was done in June this year.

Regards
John

Thanks John,
Orakei Basin sounds just the right place for Bursatella - Considering the huge number of boats I have seen there, I guess the anti-fouling paints which caused so much damage to marine life a few years ago are banned in NZ.
Cheers,
Bill
