Abstract:
Despite globally acknowledged diversity levels, the flora of the arid Richtersveld of South Africa remains poorly known for certain plant lineages, including the eudicot genus Oxalis. Cryptic habit, inaccessible and harsh terrain and the lack of focussed systematic attention has led to the assumption that the region is depauperate in this genus. However, recent exploration proved quite the opposite and revealed a wealth of Oxalis species, including at least ten undescribed species and many significant range extensions of known taxa. We are in the process of describing these new species, but an

Abstract:
Two new species and two new genera (Kuboesphasma, Minutophasma) of Mantophasmatodea that occur in the Richtersveld region of South Africa are described. Kuboesphasmacompactum gen. n., sp. n. was found only in a small area near the village of Kuboes, while Minutophasmarichtersveldense gen. n., sp. n. apparently inhabits a larger area in the Richtersveld. With these two new species, a total of four different mantophasmatodeans are known to live in this area. This is a remarkable exception to the remaining representatives of this order, where even a common occurrence of only two species is rare.

Abstract:
Oxalis dreyerae, a new species from the arid Richtersveld region of South Africa, is described. It is most similar to O. inconspicua from which it differs, among others, by having a larger plant body, larger and showier flowers with a broadly trumpet-shaped tube, much larger leaflets, petioles that are thicker than the peduncles, much larger lanceolate sepals and short, stubby teeth on the longer filaments. Its placement within the O. flava clade is supported by nrDNA ITS sequence evidence, which is also consistent with a close relationship to O. inconspicua. Oxalis dreyerae represents the eig

Bibliography: p. 145-152.<br>The primary aim of this ethnobotanical dissertation was to provide a biobehavioural focus for indigenous plant use in the semi-arid areas of one of the six so-called Coloured Rural Reserves (Komaggas, Concordia, Richtersveld, Steinkopf, Leliefontein and Pella) in the north-western Cape (Namaqualand). Although much of the indigenous plant lore has been lost through westernization, the descendants of the Nama-speaking Khoi pastoralists, who are traditionally associated with Namaqualand, still partially rely on indigenous plants for subsistence.

Abstract:
The Succulent Karoo is recognised as an important biodiversity hotspot and many of the key plant lineages that characterise the biome are thought to have originated during the Pleistocene epoch. However, due to the paucity of palaeobiological proxy data available for the Succulent Karoo, relatively little is known about its environmental history and how an important core of this region, Namaqualand and its subregion the Richtersveld, may have responded to Pleistocene changes. Recent excavations at Spitzkloof Rockshelter A in the Richtersveld have provided a rare source of palaeoenvironmental d
