Explanatory Notes Soil texture information is only recorded for the top 5cm of soil at the survey site, plant litter cover refers to the % of area covered by leaves, twigs or bark, structural formation according to the SA Structural Vegetation Formation (Heard & Channon, 1997) Botanical Abbreviations ? = identification uncertain, * = introduced plant species, var. = variety, ssp. = subspecies, gp = group, nothossp. = hybrid of a subspecies, - = integrade, x = hybrid (secondary intergrade), sp. = identification possible only to genus level Taxonomic Clarification Required 'plant species' = names in inverted commas indicate that taxonomic changes have occurred since the survey and that subsequent research is required to positively identify this species (SYN) = indicates that the plant species name used is a synonym name (NC) = indicates that the plant species is a non valid name which has been superseded by taxonomic changes **Cover Abundance Codes R - Solitary plant T - sparsely present; cover small (less than 5%) 1 - plentiful, but of small cover (less than 5%) 2 - any number of individuals covering 5 - 25% of the area 3 - any number of individuals covering 25 - 50% of the area 4 - any number of individuals covering 50 - 75% of the area 5 - covering more than 75% of the area Note: Adapted from Braun-Blanquet.
