Directions to Bouchard Finlayson
DIRECTIONS TO BOUCHARD FINLAYSON: 1. The quickest way from Cape Town: 1hour 15 minutes Take N2 from Cape Town, direction Caledon and George, past Cape Town International Airport, through Somerset West and over Sir Lowry's Pass. After about 75km, after going over a 2nd mountain pass, Houw Hoek Pass, the N2 forks left into the R43 - signposted and marked "Hermanus/Kleinmond". (If you go under a bridge, you have missed the turnoff and will have to take the exit for Botriver and double back following the signs for "Hermanus") Once you have taken the R43 - continue for 30 km towards Hermanus, past the suburbs of Vermont and Onrus. At the 2nd set of traffic lights - the Sandbaai intersection of R43 and R320, turn left. (Hemel-en-Aarde Valley housing development & shops landmark on the left). Continue for 5.5 km - past Hamilton Russell Vineyards - you will see our long white walls at the entrance of the farm. The cellar is the thatched building, about 500 metres from the entrance. 2. The most beautiful way from Cape Town: 1 hour 45 minutes Take N2 from Cape Town, direction Caledon and George, past Cape Town International Airport, through Somerset West - take the Gordon's Bay / Rooiels turn-off (right) before ascending Sir Lowry's Pass, and continue along the coastal road towards Rooiels, then past Pringle Bay, Betty's Bay and Kleinmond and past Arabella golf Estate. This road, R44 forms a T-junction with the R43. Turn right at the intersection. Continue for 20 km towards Hermanus, through suburbs of Vermont and Onrus. -

The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage. -
Campanulaceae) Based on ITS and Tranl-F Sequence Data: Implications for a Reclassification

Phylogeny of Southern African and Australasian Wahlenbergioids (Campanulaceae) based on ITS and tranL-F sequence data: implications for a reclassification.

Phylogeny of Southern African and Australasian Wahlenbergioids (Campanulaceae) based on ITS and trnL-F sequence data: implications for a reclassification Christopher N. Cupido , Jessica M. Prebble , and William M. M. Eddie Abstract The Campanulaceae: Wahlenbergioideae currently comprises 15 genera, one of which, Wahlenbergia, is widespread over the southern continents. Southern Africa is the region with maximum wahlenbergioid diversity with 12 genera and approximately 252 species. A second center is Australasia with 38 Wahlenbergia species. This study used a broad sample of wahlenbergioid diversity from South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand to reconstruct a phylogeny based on chloroplast trnL-F and nuclear ITS sequences. Data were analyzed separately and in combination using parsimony and Bayesian methods. The results suggest that for the wahlenbergioids to be monophyletic Wahlenbergia hederacea has to be excluded and that none of the South African, Australian or New Zealand lineages are strictly monophyletic. There are five species assemblages that are in some disagreement with current classification in the family. Wahlenbergia, Prismatocarpus and Roella are shown to be non-monophyletic and implications for a reclassification are presented. Careful consideration of morphological characters is suggested before the adjustment of generic circumscriptions can be accomplished. Recent family-wide molecular phylogenetic studies have supported the view that the Campanulaceae s.s. -

Archaeological Impact Assessment of the Proposed Extension of a Borrow Pit on Soetmelksvlei 150, Greyton Area, Overberg District Municipality, Western Cape
ARCHAEOLOGICAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPOSED EXTENSION OF A BORROW PIT ON SOETMELKSVLEI 150, GREYTON AREA, OVERBERG DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, WESTERN CAPE (Assessment conducted under Section 38 (8) of the National Heritage Resources Act as part of a Heritage Impact Assessment) Prepared for: Vidamemoria Heritage Consultants Att: Ms Quahnita Samie E-mail: [email protected] On behalf of: Nadeson Consulting Services Prepared by: Madelon Tusenius Natura Viva cc PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010 Phone: (021) 462 3622 E-mail: [email protected] OCTOBER 2012 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Natura Viva cc was appointed by Vidamemoria Heritage Consultants on behalf of Nadeson Consulting Services to undertake an Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA) for the proposed extension of an existing borrow pit DR1303/16.50/R/1250 (Vidamemoria pit no. 179) between Greyton and Riviersonderend in the Overberg District Municipality. Material excavated from the proposed pit extension will be used for the maintenance of the DR1303. No new roads will have to be constructed as access to the quarry site will be via existing roads and tracks. Special erosion measures will have to be implemented during rehabilitation of the site after quarrying activities have ceased. This study forms part of the Heritage Impact Assessment triggered by the development. The brief for the study was a field visit and short report identifying and assessing archaeological resources and any impact on them, an assessment of significance and recommendations regarding any mitigation required. The field assessment was conducted on foot on 17 September 2012. Archaeological visibility was good on the sparsely-vegetated steep slopes of the hill which forms the major part of the proposed extension. -
