  • Sequence Stratigraphic Development of the Neoarchean Transvaal Carbonate Platform, Kaapvaal Craton, South Africa Dawn Y
    DAWN Y. SUMNER AND NICOLAS J. BEUKES 11 Sequence Stratigraphic Development of the Neoarchean Transvaal carbonate platform, Kaapvaal Craton, South Africa Dawn Y. Sumner Department of Geology, University of California 1 Shields Ave, Davis, CA 95616 USA e-mail: [email protected] Nicolas J. Beukes Department of Geology, University of Johannesburg P.O. Box 524, Auckland Park, 2000 South Africa e-mail: [email protected] © 2006 March Geological Society of South Africa ABSTRACT The ~2.67 to ~2.46 Ga lower Transvaal Supergroup, South Africa, consists of a mixed siliciclastic-carbonate ramp that grades upward into an extensive carbonate platform, overlain by deep subtidal banded iron-formation. It is composed of 14 third-order sequences that develop from a mixed siliciclastic-carbonate ramp to a steepened margin followed by a rimmed margin that separated lagoonal environments from the open ocean. Drowning of the platform coincided with deposition of banded iron-formation across the Kaapvaal Craton. The geometry and stacking of these sequences are consistent with more recent patterns of carbonate accumulation, demonstrating that Neoarchean carbonate accumulation responded to subsidence, sea level change, and carbonate production similarly to Proterozoic and Phanerozoic platforms. The similarity of carbonate platform geometry through time, even with significant changes in dominant biota, demonstrates that rimmed margins are localized primarily by physiochemical conditions rather than growth dynamics of specific organisms. Stratigraphic patterns during deposition of the Schmidtsdrift and Campbellrand-Malmani subgroups are most consistent with variable thinning of the Kaapvaal Craton during extrusion of the ~2.7 Ga Ventersdorp lavas. Although depositional patterns are consistent with rifting of the western margin of the Kaapvaal Craton during this time, a rift-to-drift transition is not required to explain subsidence.

Schweickerdt Herbarium, Department of Plant and Soil Sciences, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, 0002 South Africa. *Author for correspondence. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Gymnosporia sekhukhuniensis, a new species from north-eastern South Africa, is described, illustrated, mapped, and compared with closely related species. It belongs to Gymnosporia sect. Buxifoliae, more specifically Group 1, the members of which are characterized by the capsules being (2)3(4)-valved, rugose or verrucose, and the seeds partially covered by the aril. The new species has a restricted distribution range and is near-endemic to the Sekhukhuneland Centre of Endemism. This biogeographical region rich in restricted-range plants is more or less congruent with surface outcrops of mafic and ultramafic igneous rocks belonging to the Rustenburg Layered Suite of the eastern Bushveld Complex. The range of the new species shows marginal intrusion into the far northern part of the nearby Wolkberg Centre of Endemism, where it is associated with dolomites of the Malmani Subgroup. Gymnosporia sekhukhuniensis is a suffrutex mainly associated with rocky outcrops in open savannah. Diagnostic characters include its dwarf habit (up to 1.6 m tall), capsules that are relatively small (5–8 mm long), woody, scaly-rugose, with hard pointed apices, and leaves that are very laxly arranged on the stems, with some often present on the thorns.

  • Mus Neavei – Thomas’S Pygmy Mouse
    Mus neavei – Thomas’s Pygmy Mouse Assessment Rationale This species is listed as Data Deficient in view of continuing uncertainty as to its extent of occurrence, natural history, threats and population size. Within the assessment region there are only a handful of records Photograph from Mkhuze Game Reserve and Wolkberg Nature Reserve. The species appears to be naturally uncommon, wanted and its conservation status and taxonomy are unclear. Further vetting of museum records and field surveys are required to resolve the uncertainty around this species. It should be reassessed when additional data become available. Regional population effects: Isolated and disjunct subpopulations of this species have been recorded in Regional Red List status (2016) Data Deficient* South Africa and Zimbabwe/Zambia, thus no rescue effect is possible. National Red List status (2004) Data Deficient Reasons for change No change Distribution Global Red List status (2008) Data Deficient Thomas’s Pygmy Mouse has a largely unresolved TOPS listing (NEMBA) (2007) None distribution, as it is commonly misidentified as M. minutoides, but is thought to range patchily from CITES listing None northern South Africa northwards to Tanzania (Monadjem Endemic No et al. 2015). Although, further investigation and confirmation is necessary, this species has been reported *Watch-list Data from north-eastern South Africa, southern Zimbabwe, Although its distribution may be more widespread, western and southern Mozambique, Zambia, southern Thomas’s Pygmy Mouse is only known from two Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of Congo (Skinner disjunct localities in South Africa: Wolkberg & Chimimba 2005).
