Freshwater ecosystems are the most threatened on Earth, with many species facing extinction. The Clanwilliam sandfish (Labeo seeberi) is South Africa's most threatened migratory freshwater fish and is endemic to the Olifants–Doring River system in the Cape Fold Ecoregion. Non‐native fish predation and river desiccation have caused a recruitment bottleneck, severely compromising juvenile survival and resulting in a declining population of aging sandfish. The Saving Sandfish Project launched an emergency head‐start intervention in 2020 to reduce extinction risk. We (1) rescued juvenile sandfish from drying pools in a key spawning tributary (the Biedouw River); (2) relocated them to 6 off‐stream reservoirs; and (3) released reservoir‐reared sandfish back into their natal river once large enough to evade non‐native fish predation. Here, we estimate survival in the reservoir environment, evaluate return rates relative to wild run size, and assess the probability of return based on conditions at release. Between 2020 and 2022, we stocked 33,391 juvenile sandfish into the 6 reservoirs. After 1 year, the estimated survival rate at one reservoir was 0.679 (range based on 95% CI: 0.385–0.973). Release and return results are presented only for the first (2020) rescue cohort. In 2021, we released 1277 sandfish from 2 reservoirs into the Biedouw River, comprising 16.6% of the 2020 rescue cohort. Mean size at release was 169 mm (SE 0.6) total length. Of those released, 994 were PIT‐tagged. A total of 77 PIT‐tagged sandfish were recorded during the 2022 spawning migration—a return rate of 7.7% of tagged releases in the first year of returns. Size of fish and distance from the Doring River at release were significant predictors of return probability, with larger fish released further from the Doring experiencing a higher probability of return. This program serves as a model for the conservation of freshwater fish where there is an imminent and high risk of extinction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recent phylogeographic studies of poorly-dispersing coastal invertebrates in highly biodiverse regions have led to the discovery of high levels of cryptic diversity and complex phylogeographic patterns that suggest isolation, geological, and ecological processes have shaped their biodiversity. Studies of southern African coastal invertebrates have uncovered cryptic diversity for various taxa and phylogeographic patterns that, although sharing some similarities across taxa, do differ. These findings underscore the need for additional studies to better understand the biodiversity levels, distributional patterns, and processes responsible for producing coastal biodiversity in that region. The coastal isopod Deto echinata is of particular interest, as its complex taxonomic history, poor dispersal capabilities, and broad geographic distribution suggest the potential for cryptic diversity. We use mitochondrial and nuclear sequences to characterize D. echinata individuals from localities ranging from northern Namibia to Glentana, about 2,500 km along the coastline on the south coast of South Africa. These are used to assess whether D. echinata harbors cryptic genetic diversity and whether phylogeographic distributional patterns correlate with those previously documented for other coastal isopods in the region. Analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear sequences revealed two deeply-divergent lineages that exhibit a distributional break in the Cape Peninsula region. These findings suggest D. echinata is a cryptic species complex in need of taxonomic revision and highlight the need for further taxonomic and phylogeographic studies of similarly poorly-dispersing coastal invertebrates in southern Africa.

Manta rays (Mobula alfredi and M. birostris) are poorly understood in South Africa, despite their ecological importance and charismatic appeal. This study analyzed a 41-year dataset from the KwaZulu-Natal bather protection program to investigate catch per unit effort between 1981-2021. We used Generalized Additive Models and the probability of encounter to assess annual and seasonal trends, as well as the effect of location and moon phases on catch rates. We also evaluated the size composition and demographics of caught manta rays using the same dataset. Our analysis revealed a significant decline in overall manta ray catches since the late 1990s (p

Opercular bars average 0.98 mm long, armed by medial row of ‘arrowhead-shaped’ teeth and setae, also lined with lateral row of bifid teeth and more setae (fig. 19D, E). Two posterior processes on opercular bar with several bifid and simple teeth (fig. 19A). Comb collar feather-like, with small projections along entire edge (fig. 19B). Orificial knob well developed (fig. 20B). Surface below opercular bars smooth and ‘plate-like’, in contrast to surface of rest of animal, which is smooth (fig. 19A). Developed lateral bars running from opercular bar downwards, reinforcement bars running from anterior part of opercular bar downwards. Female bright red below opercular area, rest of body brownish-red (fig. 18A), becoming dark brown when preserved (fig. 18C). Burrow opening slit-like, elongated (fig. 18B). Three pairs of terminal cirri and caudal appendages two-segmented (fig. 20C). Mouth cirri with four-segmented posterior ramus shorter than six-segmented anterior ramus, both rami with long, plumose setae on each segment; rami extending off two-segmented protopod (fig. 20H). Mandible with three large teeth, first separated from remainder by notch; inferior angle with small teeth and setae (fig. 20E). Maxillule with two cuspidate setae above notch, with several setae, lower two-thirds of cutting edge with several sharp setae (fig. 20F). Maxilla triangular, with long dense setae at tip (fig. 20D). Mandibular palp trapezoid with long dense setae at tip (fig. 20G). No males observed. Hosts. Previously described from Charonia tritonis and Conus terebra. Collected in South Africa in the areas surrounding East London from Charonia lampas, Dinoplax gigas, Haliotis midae, Mancinella capensis, Ranella gemmifera and Turbo sarmaticus. Distribution. Previously known from Madagascar and Socotra Island (Kolbasov, 2002). In South Africa found intertidally, and subtidal to 30 m depth, in the Eastern Cape, ranging from Kwelera Bay (3250’08.0”S, 2807’09.5”E) to Gonubie (3256’33.8”S, 2802’00.9”E). In South Africa found only in Eastern Cape Province. Remarks. Differences were observed in the number of segments of each ramus of the mouth cirri; the posterior ramus with 6 segments, the anterior with 4. There are currently 7 species in this genus, with the removal of K. bihamata (now considered a nomen nudum, see above), the addition of Kochlorine sp. A. (below), and not including two undescribed species reported by Chan, Hsieh & Kolbasov (2014). Our identification is based partly on similarity in overall body shape and length to Kochlorine bocqueti, which has a length of 2.1 mm and maximum width of 1.2 mm (Kolbasov, 2002 a), both being within the ranges of the South African specimens (1.7–3.4 mm and 0.85–1.85 mm, respectively). Similarly, the reported opercular bar size (0.75 mm) is within the range found in South Africa (0.6–1.35 mm). More importantly, the South African specimens fit the diagnosis reported for K. bocqueti, which is (translated from Russian) “Opercular bars with a pair of small posterior processes armed with bifid and 8–13 long, sharp lance-shaped teeth”. Finally, K. bocqueti is already known from sites in the western Indian Ocean (Madagascar and Socotra Island) and thus its discovery in the East London area represents a plausible range extension down the east coast of Africa. This discovery not only represents a considerable range extension but adds several new hosts. The species was also found in association with A. utinomii, W. cf. hirsuta and W. spinosa., Published as part of Botha, Thomas P.

SAMC-A091112, False Bay, Western Cape, 15 March 2017, 1 specimen in Burnupena cincta shell. Diagnosis. Australophialid with a notch one-third distance from anterior end on apertural margin, otherwise similar to other South African australophialid, Australophialus utinomii. Description. Female, mantle bottle-shaped, with characteristic elongated neck of all cryptophialids (Figs 2C; 4A). Length 1–3 mm (mean 1.95 mm), width 0.6–1.6 mm (mean 1.19 mm). Opercular bars ~ 300 m long and wellarmed on margins by long, simple teeth and setae, with nodules on flat surface of opercular bar (fig. 3A, D, F). Distinct notch on opercular bars about one-third from anterior end (fig. 3D, F; 4B). An infolded velum with lamellae extends into comb collar, which is composed of long, fine projections, ending in bristles (fig. 3E). Lateral surfaces of operculum with dense rows of multifid scales, with setae (fig. 3B). Mantle surface striated, with no obvious projections other than small teeth that are mostly bifid and uniformly distributed. Large reinforcing bars present, with one extending dorsally toward attachment area on dorsal end of aperture (fig. 4B). Pair of lateral bars extends from apertural notch downward along mantle on either side (fig. 4B), with fewer teeth on their surface, as normal for this genus. Attachment area masked by layers of previous moults (cemented exuviae) that form a hard disk onto which males attach (Tomlinson, 1969). Colour similar to W. spinosa, light reddish and white colour when fresh turning light brown/white when preserved in ethanol (fig. 2C). Burrow oval-shaped (fig. 2B), averaging 0.3 x 0.25 mm. Terminal cirri with four pairs, without caudal appendages (fig. 4C). One whip-like dorsal body process (fig. 4D). Mouth cirrus (paired) reduced, consisting only of small processes with several bristles (Tomlinson, 1969). Characteristic of the genus, labrum elongated and tongue-shaped, extending out of aperture, with setae at tip (fig. 4F). Mouthparts typical of genus, with ovate maxilla with distal setae (fig. 4E). Mandible with three teeth on cutting edge. Maxillule with no notch, no dense and long setae (fig. 4E). Mandibular palp elongated, with setae at distal end. Mature attached males averaging 0.45 x 0.25 mm. As many as 17 males attached to single female. Hosts. Type host Turbo sarmaticus. Previously known to bore into shells of Burnupena cincta and Burnupena limbosa. New hosts reported here are Argobuccinum pustulosum, Crepidula porcellana, Fusinus ocelliferus, Haliotis midae and Turbo cidaris. Distribution. Type locality False Bay (3407’57.8”S, 1826’44.1”E), South Africa. Ranges from Paternoster (3248’28.90”S, 1753’29.05”E) to Hermanus (3425’1.62”S, 1914’55.46”E). Endemic to the Western Cape. Remarks: Australophialus turbonis was previously reported from the Western Cape in various hosts (Barnard, 1925) and at Umpangazi in KwaZulu-Natal (Tomlinson, 1969) from Purpura persica (previously Thais rudolphi). However, this was probably a misidentification and likely was a specimen of A. utinomii, which is morphologically similar to A. turbonis (see below). Australophialus turbonis is only known from the Western Cape, whereas A. utinomii occurs in the Eastern Cape around East London and in KwaZulu-Natal. Moreover, A. utinomii is also known from two Purpura species (see below), while this is not a known host for A. turbonis. Commonly found in the same hosts in association with Weltneria spinosa., Published as part of Botha, Thomas P.

Females with pair of large hooks forming posterior processes of operculum, inner and outer margins of operculum with simple or bifid teeth. Also characterised by presence of pair of weak and irregular lateral bars. Description. Female, body oval-shaped (fig. 7B; 9A). Length 2.1–4.7 mm (mean = 2.98 mm), width 1.05–2.85 mm (mean = 1.69 mm). Opercular bars on average 0.87 mm long, with pair of large, curved posterior processes at top of operculum armed with several simple teeth and setae (fig. 8B, D; 9B). Both inner and outer margins of operculum lined with bifid or simple teeth and setae (fig. 8C, D, E). Rostral end of opercular bar with simple spines and setae (fig. 8E). Lateral surface of operculum lined with several teeth, setae and large multifid scales (fig. 8B, F). Comb collar consisting of long feather-like projections (fig. 8A). Developed orificial knob absent. Feeble lateral bars present running down mantle near operculum (fig. 9A). Row of small, mostly bifid teeth running down ventral surface on mantle. Females bright red when fresh, cirri also bright red (fig. 7A, C). Aperture resembles typed apostrophe, with one end having more pointed tapered slit (fig. 7C). Five pairs of terminal cirri, with pair of two-segmented caudal appendages (fig. 9C, D), two conical processes present (fig. 9C). Mouth cirri with four-segmented posterior ramus shorter than five-segmented anterior ramus, both with long setae (fig. 9G). Labrum saddle-shaped, mandibular palp trapezoid, with dense setae (fig. 9H). Mandible with three teeth, excluding inferior angle (fig. 9E), first tooth separated from second and third by large notch, inferior angle with several small spines and setae. Maxillule with single notch in middle of outer margin, two long cuspidate setae below notch, with three short, sharp setae above notch (fig. 9F). Male much smaller than female, average of 0.66 x 0.32 mm, with up to four on a single female. Hosts. The type-host is Haliotis midae. Also previously known from Argobuccinum pustulosum and Turbo sarmaticus (Tomlinson, 1969). New hosts in the Western Cape include Burnupena cincta, Dinoplax gigas, Scutellastra tabularis and Turbo cidaris. Collected in the Eastern Cape from two new hosts, Ranella gemmifera and Mancinella capensis, as well as from T. sarmaticus and H. midae. Also found inhabiting coralline red algae (Botha, Griffiths & Maneveldt, 2020) in the Eastern Cape in a rhodolith (Lithophyllum sp.), a discoid species, Lithophyllum neoatalayense, also from Heydrichia woelkerlingii in the Western Cape. Distribution. Type locality Hermanus (3425’1.62”S, 1914’55.46”E) in the Western Cape. Ranges from Melkbosstrand (3344’08.1”S, 1826’15.2”E) to Qolorha (3250’08.0”S, 2807’09.5”E). Endemic to Western and Eastern Cape provinces. All specimens were collected in water Remarks: Weltneria spinosa Berndt, 1907 is the type species of the genus and is the most common acrothoracican in South Africa, with up to 235 individuals found in a single Haliotis midae shell. Often found in the same host with Australophialus turbonis in the Western Cape and Australophialus utinomii and Kochlorine bocqueti in the Eastern Cape. In the Western Cape, empty burrows of this barnacle are often occupied by the unique amphipod Ampelisca excavata, which appears to be restricted to, and anatomically adapted, to live in this specialised niche (Gray & Barnard, 1970). We recorded this amphipod in W. spinosa holes on both T. sarmaticus and, in great abundance, on the coralline algae H. woelkerlingii., Published as part of Botha, Thomas P.

Kochlorine bihamata Noll, 1883 (deletion from fauna list) Kochlorine bihamata.— Barnard 1924: 99.— Tomlinson, 1969: 72.— Kolbasov, 2009: 320. Diagnosis. Females with no anterior conical processes, mantle aperture with two posterior hooks and spiny teeth on rim; size 5 mm (Tomlinson, 1969). Hosts. Collected as dried specimens observed in an Haliotis shell. Although not explicitly stated which Haliotis species is referred to, it can be assumed this is the abalone, Haliotis midae, which is known to host other acrothoracicans. Remarks. This species has not been observed since its description from Cape Town by Noll (1883) and there remains grave doubt regarding the validity of the species. Noll (1883) mentioned that: “Should new specimens of Kochlorine arise from Cape Town, one can well label it Kochlorine bihamata ”. Therefore, it is safe to assume that the genus Kochlorine occurs from Cadiz, Spain to Cape Town, South Africa and burrows into shells of Haliotis spp.. Although Tomlinson (1969) calls into question the validity of the species, he later states that K. bihamata should be treated as a valid species. However, following our survey no trace of this species was found, despite the type host being collected at the type locality and several adjacent localities. Thus, we consider that it is safe to assume that this is a nomen nudum., Published as part of Botha, Thomas P.

Deposited material: ELMC 0421, Kwelera Bay, Eastern Cape, 7 January 1986, 14 specimens on Charonia lampas shell (7 specimens not deposited, used for SEM, dissections and genetic analyses). Diagnosis. Weltneria with opercular bars that have numerous sharp, simple teeth and long setae, opercular bars terminating in tapered, conspicuous, spine-shaped posterior process. Description. Female, length 1.6–2.5 mm (mean = 2.05 mm) and width 1–1.7 mm (mean = 1.31 mm). Body oval-shaped, except opercular area flat surface, not rounded (fig. 10A; 12A). Opercular bars broad, concave on outer surface, average of 1.05 mm, with large upper surface and pair of posterior processes (fig. 11C, D), simple teeth along edges and down lateral surface of opercular area (fig. 11C, A, F). Occludent margins of opercular bars forming small, narrow aperture with almost no internal structures visible (fig. 11C). Row of simple and bifid teeth on either side of opercular bars, with several others randomly distributed on dorsal surface (Fig. 11A). Comb collar of long, feather-like projections (fig. 11B). Several bifid and trifid teeth on surface of mantle. Lateral surface below opercular bars with spines, setae and broad multifid scales, similar to those of W. spinosa (fig. 11E, F). Opercular knob and lateral bars absent. Mantle surface with several, randomly distributed, bifid teeth. Live colour unknown; dark brown/orange when preserved in ethanol (fig. 10A). Burrow oval-shaped, opercular bars well-fitted to burrow (fig. 10B). Terminal cirri five pairs with two-segmented caudal appendages, with setae at distal segment (fig. 12B, C). Mouth cirri with three-segmented posterior ramus shorter than four-segmented anterior ramus (fig. 12D, E). Both rami with setulated setae. Labrum saddle-shaped, bullate, upper edge convex, armed with developed dorsal process, while anterior edge horseshoe-shaped, smooth (fig. 12D). End of mandibular palp trapezoid, with dense simple setae as well as setae with small sparse setules on tip (Chan, Hsieh & Kolbasov, 2014). Mandible with three major teeth becoming smaller towards inferior angle, first upper tooth separated from the rest. Inferior angle with several denticles, inferior angle ending in two large denticles (Chan, Hsieh & Kolbasov, 2014). Maxillule with single notch, two large cuspidate and small setae above notch, more than five sharp setae at margin below notch (fig. 12F). Lateral surfaces with dense serrate setae. Maxilla sub-triangular with many simple setae on outer margin and apex (fig. 12E). Hosts. Originally found in two corals, Psammocora and Porites, in Hawaii, and shells of Bursa in Japan and Murex in Taiwan (Chan, Hsieh & Kolbasov, 2014). Found in South Africa in Charonia lampas from Kwelera Bay, collected in 1986 and stored in the East London Museum (ELMW0952). This is a new record for South Africa. Distribution. Type locality is Hawaii (Chan, Hsieh & Kolbasov, 2014). Also Japan, Taiwan and a single sample from South Africa at Kwelera Bay (3250’08.0”S, 2807’09.5”E), near East London, Eastern Cape. In South Africa only occuring in the Eastern Cape. Remarks. Live colour unknown. Some mouthparts could not be dissected out. Only 14 individuals were available from a single sample, collected in 1986 and held at the East London Museum. The individuals were in bad condition. Given that only a single, poorly-preserved South African sample, collected more than 30 years ago, was available for examination, and that this record is so geographically distant from the type locality, this identification should be confirmed using genetic methods and is recorded here as ‘cf’. It is possible that this is a cryptic new species., Published as part of Botha, Thomas P.
