Area codes for recording specimen localities in the New Zealand subregion
1998
Abstract For the New Zealand mainland, 29 previously published two‐letter codes defining collection areas are reviewed, with their boundary definitions. An additional eight area codes are here defined for the outer islands of the New Zealand subregion: Kermadec Islands (KE), Three Kings Islands (TH), Chatham Islands (CH), The Snares Islands (SN), Auckland Islands (AU), Campbell Island (CA), Antipodes Islands (AN), and Bounty Islands (BO). More general area codes are added for the North Island (NO), South Island (SO), New Zealand (NZ), and the Ross Dependency (RO) in Antarctica. The main purpose of the codes is to facilitate retrieval and documentation of specimens.
