Unraveling the diversification and systematic puzzle of the highly polymorphic Psammobates tentorius (Bell, 1828) complex (Reptilia: Testudinidae) through phylogenetic analyses and species delimitation approaches
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)
The high level of phenotypic diversity in southern African tent tortoises (Psammobates tentorius complex) has for decades prevented systematists from developing a stable taxonomy for the group. Here, we used a comprehensive ...
Records of ctenophores from South Africa
(PeerJ, 2021)
Although ctenophores can be conspicuous components of the plankton in coastal marine ecosystems, only six species have been formally described from around South Africa. Using photographs from local community scientists, ...
Sharing for science: High-resolution trophic interactions revealed rapidly by social media
(PeerJ, 2020)
Discrete, ephemeral natural phenomena with low spatial or temporal predictability are incredibly challenging to study systematically. In ecology, species interactions, which constitute the functional backbone of ecological ...
A taxonomic revision of chamaecrista (caesalpinioideae, cassieae, cassiinae) in Southern Africa
(American Society of Plant Taxonomists, 2022)
The southern African species of Chamaecrista were all treated under Cassia in Gordon-Gray’s treatment for the Flora of Southern
Africa. However, given the subsequent generic recircumscriptions in the subtribe Cassiinae, ...
