Descrição
Pachnoda Consulting CC was requested by BECS Environmental (Pty) Ltd to provide an ecological evaluation inside and/or around Imerys sites in Limpopo Province. The phytosociological and faunal attributes of the study site were investigated during 23 - 27 February 2015. For flora : Data collection was primarily plot-based and consisted of 32 vegetation samples ; the plot size was standardised at approximately 100 m2 ; the species composition, as well as the mean percentage cover of each species per sampling plot was measured ; in addition, ad hoc transect walks were conducted. Mammals were identified by visual sightings during ad hoc transect walks, also identified by means of spoor, droppings, roosting sites or likely habitat types; also augmented by a four-day (five-night) trapping session (20 small mammal traps ‘Sherman Trap’ baited), plus remote infrared wildlife (trail) cameras (baited camera traps) and ad hoc nocturnal. Birds were identified by means of random transect walks, 33 point counts (randomly chosen and were approximately 200 m apart, counts lasted 10 min per point) and by means of their calls and other signs such as nests, discarded egg shells and feathers. Lepidoptera, Scorpions & Odonata were surveyed by means of a standard handnet, close-focussing binoculars, hand searching (e.g. lifting rocks) and nocturnal surveys using an ultra-violet torch. Herpetofauna : possible burrows, or likely reptile habitat were inspected for any inhabitant; amphibians were also identified by their vocalisations, but the herpetofaunal assessment focussed largely on a desktop review.
