climber, the longfin eel can climb steep falls and is found in almost
all of New Zealand’s waterways from sea level to 1150m altitude and up to
314km inland. Habitats include streams, rivers, wetlands and lakes.
Juveniles prefer shallow fast-flowing water with coarse substratum, while
adults are more common under the cover of river banks or large debris in
slower flowing water.
