1 Appendix 1d Schedule of sites of ecological significance - inner islands AP IU ROA D O RA PIU R OAD OR ORAPIU R AD O OR AP IU RO AD Omaru Bay Forest : SES 30 1:4, This site consists of four zones, two of remnant tairaire forest and two areas of saltmarsh. remnant taraire forest, with large emergent kahikatea, lies in the gully. A mixed forest exists further up the slope. This mixed forest has mamangi, rewarewa, tawa, miro and lancewood. Up on the exposed ridge, the vegetation is kanuka, with some pohutukawa, tanekaha and kauri. understorey throughout the forest is quite dense as the area has been fenced to prevent stock access. Kereru (NZ pigeon, a species in gradual decline nationally) and tui are found in the forest. two areas of saltmarsh near the coast contain jointed wire rush, saltmarsh ribbonwood, mangroves and the fern Hypolepis distans. Pied stilts breed here. Rakino s Motuihe Pakatoa Rotoroa Browns Pahiki Auckland Council District Plan - Hauraki Gulf s Section - Operative 2013 Page 49

Coastal parts are dominated by pohutukawa (with karaka, kohekohe, and puriri), with broadleaf (taraire-tawa -puriri-kohekohe-pigeonwood-nikau) forest on sheltered coastal and inland valleys, and kauri podocarp broadleaf forest (kauri-rewarewa-mamangi) on the upper valleys and ridges. Secondary forest is dominated by mamangi and kanuka. wetland includes reedland, rushland and sedgeland which provides habitat for spotless crakes. A range of common and threatened forest birds are present including kereru and North brown kiwi.
