Small fire refugia in the grassy matrix and the persistence of Afrotemperate forest in the Drakensberg mountains
Afrotemperate forests situated in the Drakensberg mountains of South Africa are characteristically small (1–10 s ha) and widely dispersed in a vast fire-prone grassland. Compared with lowland forests, they are typically species poor with low levels of endemism and species turnover, patterns that are...
