  • Ethno-Ecological Evidence for Hydnora Abyssinica Occurring in Johannesburg and Durban Traditional Medicine Markets ⁎ V.L
    South African Journal of Botany 77 (2011) 268–279 www.elsevier.com/locate/sajb Ethno-ecological evidence for Hydnora abyssinica occurring in Johannesburg and Durban traditional medicine markets ⁎ V.L. Williams , E.M. Wojtasik, E.T.F. Witkowski School of Animal, Plant and Environmental Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Private Bag 3, Wits 2050, Johannesburg, South Africa Received 24 February 2010; received in revised form 12 July 2010; accepted 13 August 2010 Abstract Large quantities of plants are traded annually in South Africa's traditional medicine or ‘muthi’ markets. A resource in high demand in the Faraday (Johannesburg) and Warwick (Durban) markets is uMavumbuka, a root holoparasite usually identified as either Hydnora africana Thunb. or Sarcophyte sanguinea Sparrm. subsp. sanguinea. However, rhizomes regularly observed in Faraday between 1994 and 2008 did not resemble either species, thereby suggesting that a third, and undocumented, species was being harvested. This was confirmed when the rhizomes were identified as H. abyssinica A.Br. by an American parasitic plant expert. An ethno-ecological study was initiated to verify its occurrence in selected muthi markets. The study further aimed to investigate the distribution of H. abyssinica through trader interviews, host species localities and some previously misidentified herbarium specimens. The study revealed that H. abyssinica was the only uMavumbuka species present in Faraday and Warwick in 2009. Furthermore, the rhizomes were being harvested in KwaZulu-Natal—an area not previously known to be part of its distribution range. Re-evaluated herbarium vouchers and recent photographs taken in the Kruger National Park have confirmed that H. abyssinica occurs in KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Gauteng and Swaziland and hence eastern southern Africa.

  • 8. Recommended Projects
    8. RECOMMENDED PROJECTS 8.1 Overview Section 6 of this Infrastructure Master Plan describes each of the water supply systems within the Umgeni Water area of operation, discusses the constraints identified within each one, and makes recommendations on the water supply infrastructure that is required to alleviate these constraints. Figure 8.1 illustrates the systems and subsystems that each of the recommended projects belongs to, and should also be read in conjunction with Figure 6.1. This Section links directly to Section 6, and describes each of the recommended infrastructure projects of significance in more detail. In particular, projects currently being implemented, or are close to implementation, are discussed. A summary of the areas that will be supplied by these proposed projects are shown in Figure 8.2. The projects per WSA are summarised in Figure 8.3, Figure 8.4, Figure 8.5, Figure 8.6 and Figure 8.7. Also included in this Section, are descriptions of new infrastructure projects that have been identified to expand the area of supply. These projects are often planned to be linked into existing supply infrastructure and their future demands could impact on the existing infrastructure. These potential impacts are discussed in Section 6. It is important to note that the implementation of these projects is influenced, and driven, by a host of factors besides purely technical requirements. These factors include financial constraints, corporate strategy, politics and local government priorities, to mention but a few. All these factors carry their own weight in the decision making process and cannot be ignored. Hence the actual implementation and timing thereof, could well vary from what is mentioned for these projects.
