Campbell Island Freshwater Invertebrate Key

Campbell Island/Motu Ihupuku lies 700 km south of New Zealand’s mainland, the most southerly of the five New Zealand Subantarctic groups.

There are two identification keys to the freshwater invertebrate taxa of Campbell Island. This key is for identifying most taxa (except Chironomidae larvae) beyond family level.

The key is suitable for users that have basic knowledge in invertebrate identification or animal biology.

The keys were made possible by funding from the Terrestrial and Freshwater Biodiversity Information System (TFBIS) Programme.
