Fijian freshwater and estuarine fishes survey 2002 - 2004

To address the poorly known aspects of freshwater fauna biodiversity in the Fiji Islands, a study of freshwater and estuarine fish was carried out from 2002 to 2004. This dataset is the result of a Master of Science thesis conducted by David Boseto at the University of the South Pacific, in Suva, Fiji. The fish surveys were carried out in 66 sites in seven watersheds on the islands of Viti Levu, Vanua Levu and Taveuni. 11 new records and a new genus were added to the known freshwater fish checklist of Fiji.
