TY - JOUR T1 - The saltmarsh vegetation of the lower Uilkraals River JF - BothaliaBothalia Y1 - 1994 A1 - O'Callaghan, M. SP - 229 EP - 233 KW - South Africa, saltmarsh, species distribution, Uilkraals River, zonation AB - Approximately 40 ha of saltmarsh exist around the Uilkraals River. The distribution patterns of species in these marshes are described and compared with patterns found in other marshes in the Western Cape. The marshes might superficially resemble a mosaic of species, but each element of the mosaic could be compared with vegetation in other systems. Peculiar salinity and tidal features are postulated as having a great influence on species distributions at this river. VL - 24 N1 - Triglochin bulbosa ER -
