Summary
An account, with illustrations, is given of 20 terrestrial plant communities found in the vicinity of Langebaan Lagoon. A map is included which is based on the Braun-Blanquet method of vegetation sampling and data synthesis, and on the photo interpretation of 1:10 000 scale colour aerial photographs. Known rare and endangered plants occurring in the Saldanha—Langebaan area are listed. Recommendations are made for the establishment of a nature reserve which includes the marsh communities around the lagoon and the varied West Coast Strandveld vegetation on the Langebaan Peninsula.
