Mimetes stokoei
Mimetes stokoei thought to be probably extinct and hadn^t been seen for over 30 years. It popped up after a hot fire in 2000. The entire population went up in smoke in March 2011...

Geissorhiza namaquamontana
Newly described (SA J Botany 2017, 111; pp 299-301), based on this specimen; fairly common from 700-860m on steep s and se facing rocky slopes; in seasonally damp soils and moss pads, to 25cm; only known from 3 collections - here, nr Leliefentein and on the Rooiberg, so yet another Kamiesberg endemic (about 60 now, with another 70 being near endemics!). Should probably be Redlisted as Rare.
From the paper: "This has led us to revise the concept of G. namaquensis, which we now restrict to taller plants up to 300 mm tall, with comparatively larger flowers with tepals
14–18 × ±4 mm and anthers 4.5–5.5 mm long. The shorter plants from the Kamiesberg and Grootberg, 80–160(–250)mm tall, with smaller flowers with tepals 8–10 ×±2mm and anthers 2–3mm long, are described as the new species Geissorhiza namaquamontana."

Geissorhiza pseudinaequalis
large flowered species restricted to damp, usually shaded, south facing spots, flowering best after fire; uncommon, from here to Simonsberg

Common in flat, lowland areas with some standing water in spots along with G. geminata and Drosera. Collected in a drought year so I believe the plant photographed is smaller than usual.

Nivenia dispar
Thrilled to catch the very tail end of flowering of this, the most localised of all Nivenias. Known only from within 400m of this spot! Total population estimated at about 300 plants, in veld about 12yrs old. Plants to 2m tall in sheltered spots, but usually >0.5m. Steep south facing slopes on sandstone.
Occasional pine, with serious infestation about 1km to the north.

Highly localized, calling from dense vegetation near the main seepage channel in an area approx. 100m^2. No calls were heard anywhere else, suggesting this species shows strict habitat preferences. Pictures are of the entire wetlands, not the specific location of this individual.
