  1. LT = Lake Tarawera, UT = upstream Tarawera, DT = downstream Tarawera, RR = Rangitaiki River, KR = Kaituna River. NM = Number of individuals per sample site included in meristic analyses. Type 1, 2 and 3 = proportion of the respective morphotype (Figure 2) in sample site. Stat. = Significant differences in morphotype compositions between sample sites, shared letters indicate no significant difference at P < 0.05.
