CONSERVATION
The Australasian bittern is a threatened
species and is listed as ‘nationally
endangered’. Studies from 1980 found
600-700 birds thinly scattered in the
defined as a high growth district (i.e. projected to grow by more than 10 per cent from 2013 to 2023).
As a high growth district, the NPS-UDC requires councils to assess housing and business demand and
capacity across the district. The New Plymouth District Council and the Taranaki Regional Council must
provide sufficient development capacity for the New Plymouth district to meet demand over a 30-
year period.
Both the New Plymouth District Council and Taranaki Regional Council recognise …

planted saltmarsh
ribbonwood in the
wetlands on the western side of Lake Rotomanu in New Plymouth.
This provides an example of their growth and habit.
WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP
Report all sightings of saltmarsh ribbonwood to Taranaki Regional
Council Environment Services.
Plant eco-sourced material to preserve our local form of saltmarsh
ribbonwood.
Fence off areas of coastal wetland, scrub and forest to
Kakaramea in South Taranaki. The wetland is located in the
Manawatu Plains Ecological District in the Mangaroa Stream catchment.
General description
The wetland area is 1.7 hectares in size and is predominantly a coastal
palustrine raupo dominated wetland with a small area of open water at the
western end. The wetland is in close proximity to other coastal wetlands in
the area including Regionally Significant wetland such as the Spence Road
Pond and Lake Kaikura.
Ecological features
around the Taranaki ring plain from Mohakatino in the north to the
Waitotara river mouth in the south. The Taranaki Regional Council
recommends planting coastal tree daisy along estuary and lake margins
within the coastal zone throughout the region.
WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP
Fence off areas of scrub and forest to prevent browsing by cattle, sheep
and wild animals.
When planting coastal tree daisy, ensure plant material is eco-sourced
to preserve our local form.
