I am excited to share with you a virtual dive into the waters of Aotearoa New Zealand. Your contributions will help us research and manage the diversity and abundance of our unique marine life.

About Spyfish Aotearoa

Our team deploys baited underwater cameras in marine reserves all over Aotearoa New Zealand to monitor the abundance and diversity of marine life.
Help us identify and count the species of fish recorded by the cameras. Your classifications will be used to determine the effectiveness of the reserves, inform marine management, and protect our taonga (treasured) species.
