Vulnerable Kakahi Found

Community Engagement Advisor from Greater Wellington Regional Council

Hidden away near Lake Wairarapa, the nationally vulnerable Echyridella aucklandica have been found. This species of kakahi is the rarer of the two species found in the Wellington Region and have previously only been recorded in the northern end of Lake Wairarapa 🌊 This new find is good news for this species as being present over a wider range of habitats and locations should help with the ongoing survival of their populations.
