Abstract
Three sampling methods for estimating abundance and size of blue cod Parapercis colias were compared inside and outside Kapiti Marine Reserve, New Zealand (40° 49' 31·77('') S; 174° 55' 02·87('') E). Two baited methods, baited underwater video (BUV) and experimental angling (EA), were more efficient and had lower levels of estimate variation than diver-based underwater visual census (UVC). The BUV and EA recorded more fish and of greater size ranges than UVC, and also had fewer zero count replicates. The BUV and EA methodologies revealed highly significant differences in abundance and size of fish between sites (reserve v. non-reserve), whereas UVC revealed no such differences. These results indicate that BUV is likely to be the most accurate, cost-effective and easy to use methodology for the surveying of carnivorous temperate reef fishes for future monitoring. It is noted, however, that new data acquired using the BUV methodology may need to be compared over a calibration period to data acquired using the UVC methodology to ensure that historical data sets derived from UVC still have validity and application for future monitoring activity.

Abstract
Mytilus galloprovincialis is one of three smooth shelled blue mussel species belonging to the Mytilus edulis species complex. Naturally occurring and introduced populations of M. galloprovincialis are widely distributed throughout many regions of the globe. Mytilus galloprovincialis includes morphologically indistinguishable Northern and Southern hemisphere mtDNA lineages that have been separated for ∼1 my. To distinguish recently introduced Northern M. galloprovincialis from resident Southern M. galloprovincialis in New Zealand, we developed a 16s rRNA RFLP assay. We compared RFLP assignments of 178 mussels with those generated from a 16s rRNA sequence-estimated phylogeny. All mussels were correctly assigned by the RFLP to their sequence-based phylogenetic placement. This assay allows the rapid identification of Northern and Southern hemisphere M. galloprovincialis and will provide an important tool for monitoring human mediated introductions of otherwise cryptic lineages.

Abstract
Single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis of the NADH IV region of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule in greenshell mussels (Perna canaliculus) indicated strong population genetic structuring in this endemic New Zealand species. A northern and a southern group were differentiated by frequency shifts in common haplotypes and by the occurrence of a unique southern haplotype at approximately 20% frequency. This split occurred south of Cook Strait (the body of water between the North and the South Island) at approximately 42 degrees S latitude. Northern populations were less genetically diverse than southern populations and mussels from the west coast of the South Island were most distinct from northern mussels. We hypothesize that the unique haplotype VIII originated in the lower South Island, and that its spread northwards was obstructed by the opening of Cook Strait approximately 15 000-16 000 years ago and the subsequent establishment of present-day surface water circulation patterns in Greater Cook Strait. We suggest that present-day strong tidal flows and turbulent mixing of water masses in Cook Strait, and intense up-welling on the east and west coasts in this region, represent a barrier to gene flow between mussels located in the North Island and northern South Island vs. mussels in most of the South Island and Stewart Island.
