Summary
The Auckland Regional Council was given the opportunity to publish this report on the intertidal plants and animals of the Waitakere Ranges Coast by Bruce Hayward and Margaret Morley. The report is the result of a considerable amount of effort on the part of the authors and a wider group of participants and contributors during field-work, taxonomic identification, analysis and presentation of the information. The report presents the findings of this body of work accompanied by comprehensive species and habitat lists, coupled with an extensive array of handsome figures, illustrations and maps. The Council considers that the report provides a valuable information resource for those interested in Auckland's coastal ecology and biodiversity.
