60 | | Cape Platanna | South Africa | Endangered (EN) | 25.741803787 | Threats cannot/will not be reversed in time | Conservation Research | Aspect of biology identified that is unique to species | No | Research dependant upon <6 species (incl. this taxon) | Anura | Pipidae | Thrives in acidic environments below pH4. Hybradisation with X.leavis when pH is altered and then X.leavis occupies the same habitat. The recommendation on threat mitigation would be to consult Atherton on this. This species is seen as an easy species to keep in captivity. The most acid tolerant frog known. |
57 | | Western Leopard Toad | South Africa | Endangered (EN) | 4.190261406 | Threats cannot/will not be reversed in time | Rescue/Supplementation | No aspect of biology known to be exceptional | Yes | Research not dependant upon species | Anura | Bufonidae | Amietophrynus new genus..Distribution is mainly in a town. Has current attention from SANBI to develop a management plan of habitat. Comment on threats seem more serious and that it probarbly needs more attention than Heleophryne. Indication that education awareness is also a role that can be fulfilled in its conservation efforts. Action groups developing around its habitat and there is a development of its awareness around local residents. |
56 | | Hewitt’s Ghost Frog | South Africa | Critically Endangered (CR) | 41.940573651 | Threats cannot/will not be reversed in time | Conservation Research | Aspect of biology shared with <6 other species | No | Research not dependant upon species | Anura | Heleophrynidae | From currently known information and experience it is noted that it is in a pristine environment.However the corridor implimented by the Dept of forestry is not adequate in size. Chytrid fungus is probarbly in the tadpoles in the wild from studies done since 2000 in extensive surveys. Chytrid is a mojor threat to the adults. Suggested more efforts be focused on more research into their environmental threats and management of wild populations.Suggested to use another local more common species such as H.orientalis or H.purcelli as an analog species/model for future conservation efforts. A note must be made that there is a seriousnous about the conservation of this species. It has been noted that the tadpoles of this species should be used in captivity to start with the process of rearing to morphological stage and beyond. |
53 | | Table Mountain Ghost Frog | South Africa | Critically Endangered (CR) | 41.940573651 | Threats cannot/will not be reversed in time | None | Aspect of biology shared with <6 other species | Yes | Research not dependant upon species | Anura | Heleophrynidae | Chytrid has been identified in Heleophryne in general as a major threat. Suggestion has been made for PHVA management and establishment. Wild populations are too small to create any ex-situ poplations and it would be more viable to leave them in the wild and allow self preservation to an extent. Following on from using H.orientalis and H.burchelli as models for analog and to develop the skills for husbandry. Collecting tadpoles was suggested to use for ex-situ conservation if it has been decided on. Time is also a factor to consider in the reasoning that the environmental factors effecting there decline are slow enough to allow for model development.A point was made about genetic avilability and long term solutions are to possibly bring in approximately 20 adults for a founder poplation size. More research was suggested on genetic banking. Cultural significance as a species to South Africans and more so Western Cape inhabitants.As only six species in Genus they have specialised morphological changes during reproduction cycles such as webbings. Phylogentic significance between H.Rosei and H.hewetti put H.rosei above the H.hewetti with regards to efforts being focused on both In-Situ and Ex-Situ research. |

Not found around dams but more pools of long standing water. Noted as declining faster than commonly percieved. Possibly getting this species in captivity before the population spirals into extinction rather than having an analog species model. Not found in protected areas and there livelyhood depends on the goodwill of the farmers in the region speaking to local authorities. |
47 | | | South Africa | Endangered (EN) | 26.646013144 | Threats cannot/will not be reversed in time | Conservation Research | No aspect of biology known to be exceptional | No | Research not dependant upon species | Anura | Petropedetidae | Distribution tied to riparian forests. Concerns over degredation threatens habitat. Chytrid has been found in the wetlands in Vernin Crookes but not in this species as yet. Recommendations on In-Situ rsearch to identify if it needs rescue and supplentation but in short term it may be used as an educational tool until the details from In-situ research is available. Not seen as an easy species for Ex-Situ progammes. Tadpoles have been raised and morphed in captivity but to follow through on the reproduction is seemingly more of a challenge. |

Considered as a display species because it is Diurnal.Cold be considered for education value in endemic areas. |
30 | | Desert Rain Frog | Namibia, South Africa | Vulnerable (VU) | 21.052251177 | Threats unknown | Conservation Education | Aspect of biology shared with <6 other species | No | Research not dependant upon species | Anura | Microhylidae | Specific habitat seems to be disturbed by mining. The soil typres and hydrology of the various sand types seem to be the concern as it is in the same soil type as diamond mining. The threat therefor needs more research for habitat rehabilitation and species survival.It was mentioned that this species Ex-Situ could assist with funding opportunities for In-Situ conservation programmes in the future. Current research is being done on threats to this species. The extent, again, is not known of the threats facing this species. Was chosen as a Flagship species in that eco-region during the World Summit. This species is especially prone to climate change with regards to fog. |
