Abstract
Abstract Sockeye salmon were introduced to New Zealand from British Columbia in 1902, probably from normal anadromous (sea‐run) stock. They have developed into a permanently freshwater stock, but are not identical in appearance with Canadian freshwater salmon (kokanee) derived from sea‐run parents.
