Approximately 52% of this country鈥檚 species are endemic 鈥 found only in New Zealand鈥檚 freshwater, marine, and land environments.

We have a responsibility to the global community to preserve this unique heritage or taonga. But further than that, all of our species 鈥 including many of the naturalised aliens included in the survey 鈥 are important to New Zealand鈥檚 economy, ecology and well-being.
