Project Update: April 2002

The field work for this project took place from 27 December 2001 to 26 January 2002 and was most productive. Four sites with large populations of Aloe perryi were surveyed intensively, and additional areas exhibiting the species were visited and notes made on the plants. The search for Duvaliandra dioscoridis proved successful, with one small but healthy population located and surveyed.

A variety of data were collected concerning the ecology of the two species, the physical environments in which they were found and the other plant and animal species which live with them and may influence their distribution and abundance.
