Abstract
Efforts to describe the Oceania countries of Australia1 and New Zealand as a whole are problematic, at best, because these are two truly unique and different countries. However, it can be said of both that they lie in the South Pacific Ocean; they enjoy exclusive economic zones with valuable and diverse fisheries — including rock lobster, abalone, tuna, prawns, scallops, orange-roughy and Antarctic toothfish caught in the Antarctic’s Ross Sea; and that aquaculture is an increasingly important sector of the seafood industry.
