SANSA 2009-2010 Feedback
-
SANSA is doing well and specimens are still streaming in, contributing towards the success of the project. Due to the large number of specimens sampled that still need to be processed, the publication of a Red Data list is not possible at this stage
-
The SANSA Steering Committee recommended that an annotated checklist must be prepared of South African spiders (>2000 species), which will indicate those species which need to be assessed for Red Data listing at a later stage, and which will provide a preliminary broad statement about the conservation value of each species
-
SANSA II will end in December 2010 when the hand-over of the data to SANBI will take place
